Average rating: 4 out of 5 star rating

It's so easy to make delicious homemade ginger biscuits - and you can always adjust the ginger and sugar to taste.

  • Makes: 60

Ingredients

Pearl suggests freezing half the batch of biscuits for a week or two to keep them fresh

  • 110g butter
  • 110g sugar
  • 2 dessertspoon syrup
  • 2 dessertspoon malt
  • 2tsp ginger
  • 225g self-raising flour
  • 1tsp bicarbonate of soda

Method

  1. Cream together the butter and the sugar.
  2. Beat in the syrup, mat and ginger then stir in the flour and bicarbonate.
  3. Roll into about 60 balls (around the size of large glass marbles) and tap a small piece of crystallized ginger on top.
  4. Bake in the oven at 150°C for about 20 mins and cool on rack before tucking in.

    I thought the biscuits might be a bit bland, since the recipe is so simple, but they were lovely. Hm, I didn't get to freeze any as they didn't last long enough. I always half the sugar in any recipe, and will double the ginger next time as I am a ginger fiend. Thanks Pearl!
