Gingerbread Men

I found a recipe for gingerbread men a few months ago, many batches later with lots of experimenting this is what I was left with. Gluten free, dairy free gingerbread men!


Ingredients
70g Vitalite
70g coconut oil
(Or 140g butter)
100g dark muscovado sugar
3tbsp Golden syrup (or molassas syrup or rice syrup)
350g rice flour
1tsp Bicarbe of soda
2 tsp ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
2 balls of stem ginger chopped

Preheat oven to 180c

Melt the butter, sugar and syrup in a non stick saucepan

Mix the flour, soda, spices and ginger.

Add the wet mix to the dry mix and mix well.

If the mix is too sticky then add more flour a little at a time until it is a good texture to roll out and cut. (I have used coconut flour before for this bit)

Roll out to 5mm, cut into desired shapes (hearts go down just as well as ginger men, even made ginger tea bags once!)

Bake for 12mins until golden.

Decorate as desired, or just eat!
