Ginger Bread People



Well, it's definitely approaching the season when well meaning relatives try to push sugar bombs on children in the form of cookies cookies and more cookies. I'm working on a ginger bread people recipe that can hopefully provide a line of defense and a healthy alternative. I've got a bit of experimenting left to do, but should be able to post something tasty and cute later this week. So far I'm very happy with the texture of the cookie -- crisp but not crumbly, crunchy but not tough -- but I still need to re-work the spice/seasoning ratios ... Stay tuned.

And of course, as always, I welcome to your feedback :)

  1. Stacey... check this one out for some inspiration, if you like. Gluten free and pretty healthy. We made them last Xmas and they were decent. http://www.elanaspantry.com/gingerbread-men-cookie/

  2. Hi Sara
    Thanks for your suggestion. I did not know that Elana's Pantry has a ginger bread recipe, but I have already basically finished the recipe, and after 3 versions, I think it's pretty good. (My husband was less impressed). I shall post later, so you'll have to let me know what you think.
