Disclaimer: they’re obviously sugar free if you skip the icing decoration 🙂 I found this recipe on my favourite food magazine Taste & Flair – the December issue. This is an ideal treat for those who, like me, love Christmas stuff but don’t have much of a sweet tooth. The ingredients are simple and so is the method. The recipe originally called for 1 tsp of ground ginger, but I would add an extra 1/2 for that spicy tinge.
Steps
1 Done | In a glass bowl, I sift together the flour, cinnamon, ginger and bicarbonate of soda. Then I add the olive oil and the syrup. Originally, the recipe did not include an egg, but I felt like my mixture needed it to mould together into a dough. |
2 Done | Once the dough is formed, roll it out on a well-floured surface and cut out whatever shapes you have in the kitchen. |
3 Done | Arrange them on a baking tray, lined with baking paper, and bake for about 12 minutes at 180C. Let them cool completely before piping with Royal Icing. |
