Vegan Butter – I used Earth Delight vegan butter in my recipe testing.You could use caster sugar instead if you prefer but, again, it is more refined. Muscovado sugar is less refined, has a richer flavour and is very soft so it blends easily into the cookie dough. Muscovado Sugar – I know a lot of gingernut biscuit recipes use golden syrup but I prefer not to use such a highly processed ingredient.Tiger nut flour is good if you need the cookies to be nut-free (such as for school lunchboxes) since it is actually not a nut but a legume but its flour works in the same way as almond flour in recipes. This works really well and adds a lovely depth of flavour. Almond Flour or Tigernut Flour (optional) – if you want to add some nut flour for extra protein and flavour, you could substitute 50g of the gluten-free flour blend for almond flour or tiger nut flour.I use Dove’s Farm gluten-free flour blend when I make this recipe. The recipe needs a blend of gluten-free flours - either a store-bought ready-mixed blend of gluten-free flours - either a store-bought blend or a homemade mixture of a variety of wholegrains and starches. Gluten-Free Flour Blend – As for most gluten-free baking, you can't just swap ordinary wheat flour for one type of gluten-free flour.You can usually find stem ginger in jars either in the baking ingredients or dried fruit section of the supermarket or in the tins and jars section. Stem Ginger – these provide a chewy sweet and gingery contrast to the cookie texture.You could use an egg replacer like Just-Egg or alternatively you could try using psyllium husk mixed with water instead. Like egg, they give the springy texture and also provide liquid that creates steam while cooking and helps to make lighter biscuits.


I’ve been wanting to do a stem ginger biscuit (cookie if you’re American) recipe for a while as I just love stem ginger and couldn’t find any recipes that I liked online. Only takes a few minutes of active preparation and mixing time.Can be made nut-free or with nuts depending on what you like.Gluten-free, vegan, dairy-free, and egg-free.These cookies are gingery and delicious with the perfect level of crunch or chewiness depending on how you like them!.
