Vegan gingerbread biscuits

Vegan gingerbread biscuits

I love baking gingerbread cookies over the Christmas holidays – I just love the smell of them! These cookies are really easy to make, are dairy-free and egg-free. You could try using gluten-free flour then you’ll have a completely β€œfree-from” cookies. These vegan gingerbread biscuits can be decorated as you like – with icing,chocolate or just dusted with powdered sugar.

What you need: 175g plain flour ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda 2 tsp ground ginger How to make the gingerbread biscuits:
  1. Put the margarine,golden syrup and sugar in Β a sauce pan. Stir over low heat until the sugar has dissolved, then turn off the heat and let it cool.
  2. Sift the flour, bicarb and ginger into a mixing bowl and combine. Make a well in the centre and pour in butter mixture.
  3. Mix together to form a dough, using a wooden spoon or your hands. Create a ball or disk shape in your palms and wrap this in clingfilm. Chill for 30 mins (or up to 2 days, if you like).
  4. Turn your oven on, setting the temperature to 170°C.
  5. Put the dough between two sheets of baking paper onto a flat surface and roll it out to 3 mm thickness. Using Christmas cookie cutters stamp out the shapes.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly golden brown.
  7. Let them cool on the sheet Β then decorate them to your liking.
Tips:
  • The cookies will be quite hard because there’s no egg in the dough. Keep them in a tin. They taste better dunked in your favourite hot drink, such as hot chocolate or tea.
  • These vegan gingerbread cookies make really good Christmas tree decorations – just make a hole in them with a straw before baking!
