DIFFICULTY
METHOD
Preheat oven to 160C.
1In a large bowl combine butter/oil, sugar, maple syrup, ginger and bicarb.
2Sift in flour slowly and mix until just combined.
3Remove mixture out of the bowl and knead on a floured surface. If the mixture is too soft, add a little more flour (or refrigerate). If the dough is quite crumbly, keep kneading to bind further, add a touch of maple or water to assist creating a formed dough.
4Roll out dough to 5mm thickness and cut with shaped cutter or cup. Note: You can cut small half-moon shapes with the use of a shot glass or similar.
5Bake in batches for around 8 minutes on a greased (we used coconut oil) cookie tray. Be cautious not to overcook.
6Cool on a wire rack and decorate if desired. Enjoy!
