Yummy Ginger Biscuits image

I found this on the back of a packet of crystallised ginger I bought a while ago. They are really good, but definitely a biscuit designed for those who really love ginger!

Time 30m

Yield 10-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 3/4 cups self raising flour
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 tablespoons crystallized ginger, finely chopped
100 g butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup golden syrup or 1/3 cup maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 160C, and line a tray with baking paper.
  • Sift the flour and ground ginger into a large bowl. Add the crystallised ginger.
  • Melt the butter, sugar and golden/maple syrup in a saucepan on medium heat, or in the microwave in 30 second bursts, mixing in between. Allow the mixture to come to the boil.
  • Add melted butter, sugar and syrup to the dry ingredients and mix well.
  • Roll 1 tbs of the mixture at a time into balls, then flatten slightly and place on the tray.
  • Brush each biscuit with a small amount of water on a pastry brush, and sprinkle with brown sugar.
  • Place tray in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Cool on a wire rack, though I think these taste best when still warm!
