Method

  • Sift the flour, ginger and bicarb soda into a bowl. Add the sugar and lightly rub in the butter.

  • Add syrup and mix to a smooth paste.

  • Roll into 16 balls and place on a greased baking tray. I normally need to use 2 trays for this. Make sure you leave plenty of space between the biscuits as they will spread out.
  • Flatten each biscuit slightly.

  • Cook for around 10 minutes at gas . If using 2 trays and they are on 2 shelves, swap them over at 5 mins to ensure they are both cooked.

  • Take out of the oven and cool. Enjoy!
