Ingredients

  • cups Gluten free plain flour
  • 1 tablespoon Ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • ⅛ cup + 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
  • ¼ cup Blackstrap molasses treacle
  • 2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon Aquafaba

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl sift gluten free plain flour, ginger, spices and combine well, ensure all spices are mixed throughout the flour.
    1¼ cups Gluten free plain flour, 1 tablespoon Ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon Ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • Make a well in the middle of the flour and add coconut oil, treacle (blackstrap molasses) and aquafaba. Use a wooden/silicone spoon to fold all the ingredients together until you need to use your hands to form the dough. Dough will be fudge like.
    ⅛ cup + 1 tablespoon Coconut oil, ¼ cup Blackstrap molasses, 2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon Aquafaba
  • Divide dough into four evenly portioned balls. Use the palm of your hands to flatten the dough into approximately 7½mm (⅓”) thick onto a silicone baking mat. See notes. Use a cookie cutter to cut out the desired shapes. Peel away the unused dough. Repeat until all the dough is used up.
  • Carefully transfer the cut out cookies to a lined baking sheet tray and bake in a preheated 170C (340F) fan forced oven for 9 minutes. Allow cookies to cool down on a cooling rack, cookies will harden further as they cool. Enjoy as is, or decorate with vegan royal icing.

Notes

I highly recommend you use a kitchen scale to weigh and measure the flour.
Yield may vary depending on the size of your cookie cutters.
 
US cups and spoons measurements have been used. 1 cup is 240ml, 1 tablespoon is 15ml, 1 teaspoon is 5ml.
