I've just made them 🌞 Thank you for the recipe ❤ I just modified a bit this recepy: I didn't add white sugar (instead used 100g of brown sugar), but added 2 more tsp of ginger and replaced golden sirop with honey. Next time I'll use just 70g of brown sugar. For my taste that should be enough ☺️
Thank you for this amazing recipe! I’ve already made it 3x in the past two weeks. Also, thank you for giving the measurements in Imperial as well. Here in the USA we use Cups; very few people have scales and no one uses metrics. By the way, in the 3rd batch, I tried adding 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper and it really gives it an extra zing.
You are so welcome! Yes, I lived in the US for over 20 years and I got very used to cup measurements too! But sometimes in baking, I prefer using a scale for more sensitive recipes!! I love the cayenne pepper idea!! I’m going to try it 😃 Thank you 🙏🏽
Hello 👋. Thanks 🙏 for the delicious recipe... One question: Is it possible to use fresh grated ginger? If yes, how much do you recommend? Your fan from Germany ❤
I wouldn’t recommend fresh ginger in this recipe due to moisture. I haven’t tried it, but I imagine the biscuits would become soft. Thank you for commenting 🥰♥️
Actually there are no nuts in it!! The reason for the name goes back to when small cakes (or biscuits) were referred to as 'nuts' by bakers. Definitely delicious and rather addictive!!
Thank you for your video & recipe. Although I'm a bit reluctant with so much ginger in the recipe I will try it out.Only thing is I can't easily get a hold of Golden syrup here where I live.Can I use honey instead,as we have our own.Blessings to you from Crete Greece 🇬🇷❤️
Oh my!! You are from Greece...one of my favourite places in the world! Yes, try it with honey for sure and you can reduce the amount of Ginger Powder to start with and then adjust to your taste for future batches. Enjoy and let me know how they cam out with honey - I might try it myself!
It’s I n the description: 170g (6oz) Salted Butter. The full written recipe is on my website:www.milhaan.com/amp/old-fashioned-ginger-nut-biscuits-ginger-snaps-easy-ginger-cookies-home-made-ginger-snaps
Good question! I don't think adding something to the cookies (other than some chemicals) helps them stay fresh longer. It's more about how they are stored. An airtight container is best so they don't dry out and maintain their moisture I think.
If you are substituting Cake Flour for the Self-Raising Flour, then (per Google) whisk together 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt with 2 Cups Cake Flour to make the equivalent of 2 cups Self-Raising Flour. I hope that helps!
Hi.my name is Bewi from Bali Indonesia...i love your recipe..but unfortunately i cant find golden syrup and i subsitute with honey with ginger taste..its so yumm.Thanks for this recipe..i will make this cookie for Christmas.God bless🙏
Hi Bewi! Thank you so much for commenting! I want to visit Bali one day!! Glad you enjoyed the recipe! Yes you can use honey, maple syrup or even try making a sugar syrup or use Gud/ jaggery. Enjoy!
I also got a recipe and I try it twice today but little crack in it what did I do wrong my dear and didn't went flat enough please help my recipe asked for cake flour
Even though they are called ginger ‘nut’ biscuits, they generally don’t have any nuts in them! But you can definitely add some if you like. I’d use almonds, walnuts or pecans. Try the original recipe first though and add some in half the batch so you can see which you prefer ☺️
Thank you! As for gluten-free flour, I have not used gluten-free before. If you have had success baking other cookies with a particular flour, you could try that. Sorry I couldn't help further.
That is strange. The butter, sugar and milk should allow the cookie to flatten slightly in the oven. I’m wondering if your oven wasn’t hot enough. I hope you got to eat them either way and they tasted good. They may have needed some extra time in the oven to crisp up a bit if they weren’t flat enough. 😊
I can't believe you actually need 7 teaspoons of Ground Ginger, I make ginger biscuits all the time and only ever use 2 teaspoons of ginger a tablespoon of chopped up crystalised ginger as well as 1tsp ground cinamon,1/2tsp ground cloves and 1tsp ground nutmeg and are great BUT I am going to give your recipe a go - I may be coming back eating my words, as well as the biscuits 🙂
I can understand your reservation on adding so much ginger, but they are ginger biscuits after all!! And they do taste amazing!! So…did you make them yet?😃
I've just made them 🌞 Thank you for the recipe ❤
I just modified a bit this recepy: I didn't add white sugar (instead used 100g of brown sugar), but added 2 more tsp of ginger and replaced golden sirop with honey.

Awesome!! Glad you enjoyed them😃 and glad to hear the adjustments worked 😊

Lovely and easy to veganise. I've made a lot of your recipes. Your Gujarati daal is incredible! I've bulk cooked it for extra deliciousness
Awesome! Yes, do try the vegan version! I’m sure it’ll be delicious 😀
I’m so glad you love the Gujarati Dal! We have it regularly too😉 Enjoy!
@@MilhaanHome I've just found your Khichdi and Kadhi recipes so will be making those next. I like how you give vegan alternatives too thank you
Your'e welcome! So glad to hear you are enjoying my recipes!
I did try it was delicious.
That's great!! I'm so happy you tried it and enjoyed it!! Did you use Cake Flour?
@@MilhaanHome nope I want to try it with cake flour cause I only have it n it's late I can't go to the shops,I want to bake for my mom she's here
Ah! So how did it turn out with cake flour? I hope your mom enjoyed the biscuits!!

I wouldn’t recommend fresh ginger in this recipe due to moisture. I haven’t tried it, but I imagine the biscuits would become soft.

I like this recipe.can i substitute golden syrup with myple syrup.
I have been asked this before and I don’t think it will be a problem. Golden Syrup does make the biscuits slightly more crisp.
Lovely, must try on my next bake. Thank you. Can they be dunked in masala chai?
Oh yes they can! Great on their own too!😃♥️
SO do you pour hot butter mixture to dry ingredients or you cool the hot butter first?
The butter should be just melted, so it’s not super hot. Add the syrup, mix, then add it to the dry ingredients. No need to wait.
@@MilhaanHome thank you
😘😍🙏🌺❤❤ !Thank you Madam ! I'll cook them in my afternoon! Great recipe as always! A hug from Italy
Wonderful! Italy is one of my favourite places 😀 Enjoy the biscuits !
@@MilhaanHome Dear Milhaan !I know ! I😍 know you love also the Southern Italy lemons ! 🍋😋😍
I sure do! You are making me miss Italy! I need to plan a trip!
I love your crunch ginger cookies recipe..but cn i substitute golden syrup with molasses? Will it affect the crunchiness of the biscuit?
I’m not sure how the texture will come out but I have a feeling it will be fine! Try it out😊
I am sure they are delicious. Where did the nuts come in? Sorry I missed it 😅
Actually there are no nuts in it!! The reason for the name goes back to when small cakes (or biscuits) were referred to as 'nuts' by bakers.
Definitely delicious and rather addictive!!
Thank you for your video & recipe. Although I'm a bit reluctant with so much ginger in the recipe I will try it out.Only thing is I can't easily get a hold of Golden syrup here where I live.Can I use honey instead,as we have our own.Blessings to you from Crete Greece 🇬🇷❤️

Hi what is the replacement for golden syrup?
You could try maple syrup instead.😊
Nice video! Going to try this ;) thank you for sharing again… new subscriber here 😃😃
Wonderful and welcome 🙏🏽
Do you add the melted butter while it's still warm?
Sorry for the delay! Yes I do. I hope you try this recipe…it’s yummy☺️
How much is the measured butter? Thanks
It’s I n the description: 170g (6oz) Salted Butter.
The full written recipe is on my website:www.milhaan.com/amp/old-fashioned-ginger-nut-biscuits-ginger-snaps-easy-ginger-cookies-home-made-ginger-snaps
Looks delicious! Only, if I don't use self-raising flour, do I need to add baking powder? Thanks
Oh yes. Self raising flour is plain flour mixed with some baking powder. For 2 cups of plain flour, add 3tsp baking powder.
@@MilhaanHome Right, thanks!
You're Welcome!
@@AllGrowing❤❤
Can I substitute the golden syrup with honey?
I think Golden Syrup makes them crispy. You could try honey if you don’t have Golden Syrup but following the recipe will get better results 😊
What preservatives can you put in cookies to stay long?thanks
Good question! I don't think adding something to the cookies (other than some chemicals) helps them stay fresh longer. It's more about how they are stored. An airtight container is best so they don't dry out and maintain their moisture I think.
will definitely try this, have tried many recipes but those cracks don't come out, and they don't spread out
Yes, do give it a go. Press them down a little if needed to help it spread☺️
When I'm using cake flour how many baking soda must I use?
If you are substituting Cake Flour for the Self-Raising Flour, then (per Google) whisk together 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt with 2 Cups Cake Flour to make the equivalent of 2 cups Self-Raising Flour. I hope that helps!

I’m not sure what is wrong with your recipe but do try this one. They work well and are delicious 😊
Why are they called ginger nut cookies? I want to add nuts, so if I can use nuts in this recipe, what kind of nuts can I add. Thanks.
Even though they are called ginger ‘nut’ biscuits, they generally don’t have any nuts in them! But you can definitely add some if you like. I’d use almonds, walnuts or pecans. Try the original recipe first though and add some in half the batch so you can see which you prefer ☺️
I saw you putting them round in the oven but they came out kinda flat 🤔🤔 what happened in between?
That’s supposed to happen! As the butter melts in the oven, the biscuits expand. So be sure not to put them too close to each other.
@@MilhaanHome okay ma'am, thanks for responding
You're welcome!
❤❤❤
🥰😃
I like this recipe but I am gluten-free which flour can I use
Thank you! As for gluten-free flour, I have not used gluten-free before. If you have had success baking other cookies with a particular flour, you could try that. Sorry I couldn't help further.
@@MilhaanHome Thank you
You're welcome!
😊😊❤
🥰
Mine didn't flatten out much
That is strange. The butter, sugar and milk should allow the cookie to flatten slightly in the oven. I’m wondering if your oven wasn’t hot enough. I hope you got to eat them either way and they tasted good. They may have needed some extra time in the oven to crisp up a bit if they weren’t flat enough. 😊
@@MilhaanHome Thank you.
Do you know why they are called ginger NUT cookies when there are no nuts in the recipe?
I wondered that too!! I think it’s because it tastes like it has nuts in it but it actually doesn’t! It’s to do with the texture 😊
I can't believe you actually need 7 teaspoons of Ground Ginger, I make ginger biscuits all the time and only ever use 2 teaspoons of ginger a tablespoon of chopped up crystalised ginger as well as 1tsp ground cinamon,1/2tsp ground cloves and 1tsp ground nutmeg and are great BUT I am going to give your recipe a go - I may be coming back eating my words, as well as the biscuits 🙂
I can understand your reservation on adding so much ginger, but they are ginger biscuits after all!! And they do taste amazing!! So…did you make them yet?😃
I love ginger biscuits, so I will try them, could I use less sugar
I hope you report back. I can't wait to try these.
Yes, you could use less sugar if you want! Enjoy!!
Me too!! Waiting to hear back!
