 How to make a gingerbread man

Have you ever wondered how to make a gingerbread man? Follow this simple recipe.

Ingredients:

350g plain flour

1 tsp baking soda

2 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp ground cinnamon

125g butter

175g brown sugar

1 egg

4 tbsp golden syrup

Equipment:

Measuring jug or weighing scales

Sift

Food processor

Wooden spoon

Rolling pin

2 baking trays

Greaseproof paper

Gingerbread men cookie cutters

This recipe makes 20 gingerbread men and will take 35 minutes total to prepare and bake.

1. Sift the flour, baking soda, ginger and cinnamon. Pour in a food processor and add butter. Blend until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar.

2. Beat the egg and golden syrup and add to the food processor. Blend, then take out the dough, knead and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes. This makes sure your gingerbread biscuits keep their shape during baking.

3. Preheat the oven to 180°/350F/Gas 4. Line the baking trays with grease proof paper.

4. Roll the dough to 0.5cm. Cut out gingerbread shapes and place them on a tray, leaving a gap between them. If you don't have a gingerbread man cookie cutter, other shapes work just as well!

5. Bake for 12 - 15 minutes, until golden-brown. Leave on the tray for 10 minutes and move on a wire rack to finish cooling. Decorate with icing and decorations if you wish.
