How to bake a sublime Ginger Biscuit | Paul Hollywood's Easy Bakes

[@captainwarhead5626]

Nothing beats dipping ginger biscuits into a morning cup of tea 🤤 😋

[@roger55es]

Live Paul's bakes as well as his travel programs. All the time, updated recipies to give us his expertise knowledge Thanks

[@fayesmith7539]

As a British person in the U.S. I found your recipes to be great. The scones were fabulous. And now for the biscuits

[@debbiewood3104]

Thanks for the tip on tacking the parchment paper down with a little butter or oil. Now I know why my bakes cooked unevenly!

[@mariajoannou9936]

Yep. Making these again this morning. Hubby loves them❤

[@tanyathompson1549]

Such a relaxing and interesting video. Great simple kitchen. Nice soft background music. I love ginger. And butter. Thank you for explaining the differences around the biscuit/cookie thing. I live in northern Minnesota but have always adored all things English. Thank you for such great tutorials! 🥰👏🏼

[@francocarrieri1988]

You read my mind. I thought about making ginger biscuits earlier today, checked out your channel and just hours ago you released a ginger biscuit video. I made mine using black treacle and a light muscovado. Curiously my doe balls didn't collapse, I had to press them down. But they baked to become true ginger snap biscuit. The treacle flavour competed with the ginger but the taste was still awesome. Best ginger biscuits I've ever made.

[@nannyturtle7342]

I love mixing dough with my hands. Relaxing. Had a former friend once ask, absolutely shocked when she realized I mixed my dough with my hands, "Do you feel your hands are clean enough?" I just said WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE YOU COOK. Scrub them if you need to. I am a habitual hand washer. I raised my kids to wash their hands as a HABIT NOT A CHORE. I think that's pretty simple logic.

[@mariajoannou9936]

Yep

[@aracelisruiz7948]

Paul you make us see that everything is easy to bake and really when there is willingness and desire to do it it is achieved, your easy recipes are made like this! The delicious and exquisite Biscuit Ginger look perfect, what else could we see from the master of baking! Aww you have a beautiful Maine Coon kitten as a pet, he brings good vibes to you and your home, pets love their owners, calm and relax them! Thank you for sharing them with your videos! Congratulations

Omg love this man, he is soooo good ( and ofcourse good looking)

[@OrphanCrippler69bb]

7:38 I like how the second tray of biscuits are squished down flat but when he puts them in the oven they are perfectly round xD Just remember guys these cooking channels make alot of attempt cooks before they show you the final product to make sure they look absolutely perfect

[@writerjanet]

Winter storm here in my part of the US today, so I made these and now the house feels toasty and smells amazing! They were great with my cuppa and I'll make them again and again, I'm sure! Also, v-e-r-y easy.

Is golden syrup honey or corn syrup?

This video was the balm to ease my mood and self. I am absolutely rejuvenated and so wholly pleased to have found it!

I'm having a tea with a Walkers Stem Ginger Biscuit while watching. I will most definitely try this recipe. I love ginger in all its forms for sweet and savory dishes. Thank you

I love all of these vids! Reminds me of the Pies and Puds series( BEST EVER). I’ve watched and rewatched each episode many times over. Keep it up Paul

[@beautifulcrazy]

You've solved my desire for ginger bikkies Paul. Other recipes have so many ingredients and it's month end.... so this is perfect

[@carolinaerre6759]

I’ve just finished these biscuits… OMG, they are AMAZING! Thanks chef, in Argentina I cannot find your books… So I really appreciate your channel.

[@hayleymeredith8361]

I used up my left over Pumpkin Pie Spice I had in a jar as I had no ginger spice. Biscuits tasted delicious. Cute furry friend in the video !

[@blasebaker]

Beautiful cat. ❤ I added crystallized ginger pieces.

[@mariajoannou9936]

I did just now!

[@Artlover22]

Baking these tonight! Thanks Paul 😊. The dough is perfect and chilling 😎

[@anjealin259]

Learning that Paul Hollywood has a cat makes me smile 🙂

[@fishfootface]

Totally Yum. I usually always have biscuits with a nice cup of tea but I've gotta say that ginger biscuits are really delicious with a cup of coffee. I find dunking these biscuits in coffee really brings out the ginger flavour. My mouth is watering just thinking about it....I'm off to the kitchen.

[@owenskitchen6686]

My favourite biscuits and I like your cat.🐈

[@sansovino4124]

That's exactly how I make them, except I usually sprinkle a little sugar on them after they come out of the oven. So easy, so tasty!

[@mariajoannou9936]

😮

[@bpraag]

Second go of making them. Where I live difficult to get golden syrup but found it. Added more ginger amazing recipe and biscuit. Thanks very much Paul.

[@joylane5560]

You might think I am crazy, but 1/4 tsp black pepper gives an extra bite of heat to these! You cannot taste pepper, just the bite of ginger heat!

[@richardd.clarke9268]

Wow you have a nice comment... hello how are you doing today

[@Artlover22]

Sounds good. Will try this next time 🙂

[@kieramoore6501]

Ooh, that sounds interesting, I'll have to try that. I was thinking of adding crystallised ginger to the "batter" too to see how that comes out.

[@MrTenkara]

Not crazy at all, like some German spice cookies I've had. Great!

Paul, if you use you butter wrapper on the bowl you put the syrup in before adding the syrup, it will slide right out when adding it to your recipe.😉😊

I’ve made these cookies twice and love that they come together perfectly with no noisy mixers! Perfect for stealth baking…. I added the zest of one lemon and used regular caster sugar instead of golden. Measured them to 20g each for a yield of 26 cookies. Careful, these little babies are addictive! Update: Right now, multiple batches in, I have settled on using the zest of one orange as my one and only swap out. No more lemon or trying cardamom, etc. just the single orange zest makes these little suckers pop! 😀😜

[@Leafygreen123]

I’ve also made them with the zest of one orange and wow, that’s awesome too!

[@chrisreynolds3351]

Hi Alison, you seem like a talented, adaptable good cook. I'm medically allergic to gluten and maize. Haven't had the joy of a ginger-nut dunk for many years. Do you think this recipe could be adapted using a replacement flour of - 1/3rd coconut & 2/3rd tapioca flours? I'm totally useless at 'experimenting' and nothing seems to turn out good and so I stopped trying biccies and think o the positive side - that it's good for my waistline!

[@Leafygreen123]

@@chrisreynolds3351 Howdy! I have never used coconut or tapioca flour (have used rye, almond, regular), so I’m hopeful that someone who HAS will see your query and respond in a more helpful manner! What I know is that coconut flour has a higher absorbency than regular flour, which will result in different finished texture of the bake, so that’s going to mean you’d have to slightly increase the golden syrup in this recipe which might not achieve desired results. I supposed you could try using 1/4 - 1/3 ratio of coconut flour for every 1 ratio of regular flour called for, and keep the golden syrup as stated in recipe. For this one, if my maths are right, that would mean 56 - 75 g of coconut flour. Tapioca flour is a total mystery to me so I’m not even going to hazard a guess! Usually when I adapt recipes I only swap out spices, or add some soaked fruit inclusions or make a drizzle for atop said baked item. I’m not advanced enough to start swapping out dry and wet ingredients - once you do that you’re venturing into the chemical and scientific nature of baking, which is fun and fine if you don’t mind tipping things into the trash! 😬. Best of luck!

These are the exact same ingredients as my mum's recipe but her recipe says to gently melt the sugar, butter and treacle in a pan and add to the dry indredients. It's a lot less messy when dealing with treacle as I put the pan on the sacales and measure out the treacle straight from the tin to the pan.

Thank you Paul. Can I make my dough without syrup ?

[@lindaj5492]

Could you use runny honey or maple syrup instead of golden syrup?

[@ReibahDarling]

I bought some Lyles from Amazon to make this and tasted it. You could use corn syrup (Karo) with a few tablespoons of molasses. That’s the consistency and that’s what it tastes like. :)

[@MargotLockhart]

In North America (I mean Canada & USA), a cookie refers to all - a ginger snap is a cookie. All snaps are cookies - generally round in shape. Here, biscuits are what you might call a scone. :O)

[@sandradent65]

That's one job I hate doing Paul is rubbing the butter into the flour, I've just bought a pastry cutting in tool from Amazon which does it for you. The biscuits look lovely, you can't beat a ginger biscuit. I also dunk mine

[@LibAlcock]

what type of golden syrup? Would maple syrup work?

[@mariajoannou9936]

I didn’t have golden syrup today, so I used a cheap not so runny honey, with little flavour. I also added some chopped crystallised ginger finely chopped. I didn’t use my machine, cos hubby was asleep, and my dough cane together nicely by hand. The biscuits are cooling..

[@rashidakazmi9372]

Thank you for telling us how to make ginger biscuits, but I didn't understand, which powder have you used, is is baking powder, or baking soda??

Baking soda

[@footscorn]

So many here are not familiar with golden syrup .Here in Australia it's pretty much a staple.

Could you use baking spread for these?

[@charmaineflaherty4090]

can you freeze either the dough or the biscuit

[@sherinamohammed4311]

My husband loves Ginger biscuits but we can't get golden syrup readily available in Trinidad WI. Any substitutes for this? thanks

[@nigelriley5538]

Corn syrup works

[@catherinejustcatherine1778]

Also, honey Also, can make syrup out of sugar & water, but, is a pesky & lengthy process. Easy to wind up with a sweet mess instead
