How to Make Gingernuts
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and molasses until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the crystallized ginger.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each.
- Lightly flatten each ball with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the gingernuts cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
