Spelt Ginger Cookies with Caramel & Sea Salt
Makes 20-25 cookies
Ingredients:
125g unsalted butter, chopped and softened
1/2 cup coconut sugar
2/3 cup golden syrup
2 1/2 cups spelt four
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
Caramel from the store or any good homemade caramel.
Sea salt flakes
Method:
Preheat oven to 160 degrees.
Cream together in a mixer butter and sugar until pale and creamy. Scrape down sides and add remaining ingredients to the bowl. Beat until a smooth dough forms.
Roll dough onto a floured surface. If the dough is too soft, place it into the freezer for 10 mins.
Using a cookie cutter, cut cookies into shape. Transfer onto a lined baking tray and bake for 10 mins.
Once you take the cookies out get a small teaspoon and lightly press a spot on top of each cookie for the caramel to set in. Do this while they are hot and mouldable.
Once the cookies are cool, spoon a small amount of caramel onto each cookie and sprinkle with sea salt flakes.
Note: you could use any cookie shape you like. Also try and use a darker caramel so its not to sickly sweet! This is also a perfect cookie for ice cream sandwiches!
