Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Brown sugar
- 60 ml Golden syrup (or molasses)
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and brown sugar together until light and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
Add the golden syrup and the egg to the butter mixture, and beat until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
Scoop teaspoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into small balls. Roll each ball in the granulated sugar to coat.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 5cm (2 inches) of space between each one to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the edges are firm.
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Yummy Ginger Biscuits with tea, coffee, or as a sweet treat anytime!
