Grain Free Ginger Biscuits
Ginger is a wonderful herb to use in cooking, everything from curries to cookies. Learn more about ginger and its myriad medicinal actions in my other blog post.
Ginger biscuits are a favourite of many people. Here I am offering a grain free version of a simple spiced biscuit, containing both cinnamon and ginger. It has almond meal, tapioca and coconut instead of flour, and sweetened with a little rapadura sugar and honey or molasses.
