Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and ground ginger. Ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until it is smooth and creamy. This can be done using an electric mixer on medium speed or by hand with a wooden spoon.
- Add the maple syrup to the creamed butter and beat until well combined.
- Add the egg and continue to mix until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix; you want the dough to be just combined.
- Using your hands or a spoon, take small portions of the dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll them into balls.
- Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to lightly flatten each dough ball. This will help them bake evenly.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown around the edges.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the biscuits to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the biscuits have cooled, they are ready to be enjoyed with a cup of tea or as a delightful snack!
Tips:
- For a stronger ginger flavor, consider adding up to 1 tbsp (15g) of freshly grated ginger to the mix.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to help the biscuits maintain their shape.
- To ensure even baking, make sure all biscuits are of uniform size.
- You can add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors even more.
- If you prefer a crispy texture, bake the biscuits for an extra 2-3 minutes.
Your super simple ginger biscuits are now ready to be enjoyed! Allow them to cool completely before storing in an airtight container. These biscuits make for a perfect snack, gift, or even a quick dessert. Enjoy the warm, spicy taste of ginger and the sweet hints of maple syrup in every bite. Happy baking!
