The 80th Bake: Double Ginger Crackles
It’s the start of November and I have made it to 80 bakes, 2/3 the way there to complete my 120 bakes, amazing. Can’t believe how fast these bakes have gone, but it has involved pedal to the metal that’s for sure. Fun though. Always good to be trying something new. I will miss this when it’s done, though I can’t see myself ever giving up trying new bakes!! Hope not anyway. This bake, was snuck in around dinner time, seems to be a theme lately. Dinner was done, salad and tortilla wraps with re-fried beans, stir-fried chicken, caramelized onion and mushrooms, so I had time to bake. 🙂 I was surprised at the amount of grated root ginger in the recipe giving them a delicious ginger taste. The treacle syrup added even more flavour. They turned out tasting like ginger nuts, though chewy. Mmmmmmm. I mixed together (more…)
I will make biscuits. These digestives look easy. The ingredients are amazingly healthy, oats, bran, wholemeal flour and then of course comes the brown sugar and loads of butter. The dough was so soft and held together beautifully enough to roll out and I used the cookie cutter to cut large round biscuits just like the bought digestives. They were rich, buttery and decadently healthy…
