Gingersnaps
- 14 cup agave nectar
- 14 cup molasses
- 14 cup sugar
- 1 12-2 cups whole spelt flour
- 12 teaspoon ginger (more if you want it more spicy)
- 12 teaspoon cinnamon (again, can use more)
- 1 pinch salt
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt together agave, molasses and sugar over low heat until sugar is dissolved.
- Allow to cool slightly.
- Mix in spices, salt and enough flour to form a stiff dough.
- Take small amount of dough and roll into a ball, then flatten onto a sprayed baking sheet.
- Yield will depend on size; I like to make mine smallish so they're more crunchy.
- Bake about 5 mins, or until just set (they will firm as they cool).
- Less time will make softer cookies; longer will make them crunchier.
- Cookies will be very crunchy once they've cooled, but will soften in a few days so if you don't like really crunchy cookies leave a few days before eating (which also allows the spices to 'meld' more), If you want them glazed, use a hard icing of confectioners' sugar and water which makes them similar to lebkuchen, but I tend to leave mine plain coz I like dunking them in hot soymilk!
