Cookies!

At last week's homeschool meeting I did a baking workshop with the kids - we made ginger cookies.
It turned out really well, despite me forgetting to bring the mixing bowl.
I improvised with a plastic tub, and it worked out fine. All the kids too turns measuring out ingredients, and crowded around the basin to mix the dough

Of course, tasting the cookie dough was an important part of the process

Once the dough was ready, the kids rolled out balls of dough and used cookie cutters to make shapes.

Then into the oven (which worked better than we thought, despite having a broken door seal).
Voila!

The final product was a big success

Since some people asked for a recipe:
150g organic butter
¼ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup rapadura (evaporated cane juice)
2 Tbsp rice milk
2 cups wholemeal organic flour
2 tsp ginger powder
2 tsp cinnamon powser
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

cream the butter and sugar together, then mix in all the other ingredients, till the dough is a nice ball that you can roll up. (add extra milk, 1/2 teaspoon at a time if needed, or extra flour).
roll out, shape and bake at 150C for about 15 mins - until golden.

Enjoy!
