Ingredients:

  • 175g Organic Coconut Palm Sugar
  • 85g Biona Organic Agave Light Syrup
  • 100g Biona Organic Cocomega Coconut Spread
  • 350g plain flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 tbsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons aquafaba (liquid from tinned chickpeas)
  • Ready-made writing icing

Method:

1

Melt the coconut sugar, agave syrup and coconut spread in a saucepan, then boil for 1-2 mins (making sure a responsible adult takes charge). Leave to cool for about 10 mins.

2

Tip the flour, bicarbonate of soda and spices into a large bowl. Add the warm syrup mixture and the aquafaba.

3

Stir everything together, then gently knead in the bowl until smooth and streak-free. The dough will firm up once cooled.

4

Wrap in cling film and chill for at least 30 mins.

5

Remove the dough from the fridge, leave at room temperature until softened. 6. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6 and line two baking trays with baking parchment.

6

Print out our Little Foodies templates from our website to make the shapes.

7

Roll out the dough to the thickness of a £1 coin, then cut around the printed stencils with a knife (make sure an adult does this!).

8

Re-roll the excess dough and keep cutting until it’s all used up.
