Ginger Oat Lace Cookies

17/09/2016 by Gina Leave a Comment

I just love “lace” cookies … they are usually so thin and light and never make you feel that you have treated yourself “too much” when you have one.

These cookies will be quite crisp for a few days, but will soften just very slightly making them more “chewy” than crisp, but still totally delicious.

They are a great alternative to offering chocolates at the end of a dinner party, and would make a perfect “host gift” for someone special.  They are also ideal to offer as a very light “treat” to enjoy with a morning or afternoon cuppa.

If you wish to dress these up a little, I can see that these cookies would be ideal to spread some melted dark chocolate in-between and sandwich them together (white chocolate would also be amazing!), or simply spread the base with some chocolate, or drizzle over the top and allow to set before storing (similar to what you would see in a florentine … see here for pictures to inspire you).

I have used GF cornflour in this recipe, so if you are also using “uncontaminated oats” (I get my supplies from GF Oats see here), then for people who are gluten sensitive these could be regarded as gluten free cookies (unless you are coeliac and allergic to the protein in oats … see here for explanation).

The recipe makes 22 using a standard Australian 20ml tablespoon.

Now … I have to just stop eating these … they are wayyyyy too delicious!

Butter and dark brown muscovado sugar cooked for 8 minutes …
… before adding the cornflour, ginger, vanilla and salt and blending for 10 seconds …
… scraping the bowl and repeating for another 10 seconds
Oats and egg are then added …
… and mixed in on reverse to keep the oats intact
Mix is then placed into a separate container for easy access … tablespoon and knife is ready
This is the amount of mix for each cookie … use the knife to level the mix in the spoon …
… before pouring the mix from the spoon (use the knife to help) on to the baking tray …
… then use the knife to help push the mix into a round shape
Leave space between each cookie to allow for some spreading …
Cookies are baked for 15 minutes where they will rise slightly … remove from the oven …
… then using whatever “flattening” implement you have …
… press the top of the cookies evenly to make then thinner
Leave the cookies on the baking paper, but slide the paper onto a cooling rack to allow cookies to cool for a few minutes to firm up before removing the paper, leaving the cookies on the rack to cool completely before storing
These would make a lovely host gift for someone special …

Author: Gina @ The Passionate Pantry
Serves: 22 cookies
Ingredients
  • 120g butter, room temperature, cubed
  • 220g dark brown muscovado sugar, or dark brown sugar

  • 30g cornflour
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste, or 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp sea salt flakes, or ½ tsp fine sea salt

  • 170g oats
  • 1 x 60g egg
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees fan forced and place rack into middle of oven
  2. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper (place a dab of oil under paper to keep it in place
  3. Place butter and sugar into TM bowl and cook 8 minutes / Veroma / speed 2 / MC off
  4. Add cornflour, ginger, vanilla and salt and mix 10 seconds / speed 4, scrape around bowl and repeat 10 seconds / speed 4
  5. Add oats first, and then place egg on top and mix 10 seconds / reverse / speed 3, scrape around bowl and repeat 10 seconds / reverse / speed 3
  6. The mix will be quite loose, place into a separate container (I use a glass jug) as it is easier to dispense from there
  7. Dip a tablespoon into mixture, then scrape across top of the spoon with a knife to ensure no more than a tablespoon of mix is used
  8. Pour mix onto baking tray using the knife to help remove the mix from the spoon, then use the knife to move mix into a round shape on the baking tray
  9. Continue process leaving 5 cm (2 inches) between each cookie to allow for spreading
  10. Bake 10 minutes, turn tray around and bake a further 5 minutes until cookies are golden brown
  11. Remove from oven and whilst the cookies are still warm, press down on them with a flat implement of choice (egg flip, spatula, plastic scraper, etc.) to flatten the cookies making them nice and thin
  12. Slide the baking paper with the cookies on it to a cooling rack … once cooled for 5 minutes remove the cookies to the cooking rack, and you can reuse that piece of paper for the last lot of cookies you need to bake
  13. Allow cookies to cool completely before storing in a sealed container at room temperature

Flourless Chocolate Olive Oil Cake … this is not Flourless Chocolate Olive Oil Cake … this is not a large cake (it’s baked in a 20cm round cake tin), but it is rich, dark and dense and a small slice is just perfect.

Here I have served it with a raspberry coulis as I had some in the fridge, and a dollop of fresh cream. But I have also offered a recipe for a “Coffee Cream” in the post to serve with the cake too.

This version is nut free (I have used toasted sunflower seeds), but you can also use almonds if nuts are not an issue in your home.

The cake is also dairy free, is very quick to make, and gives you eight serves similar to what you see in the post here:

Marrakesh Carrots … this is a fabulous dish … Marrakesh Carrots … this is a fabulous dish … it is easy to make, and leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to three days.

I use a Thermomix to chop the carrots (it is quicker than trying to grate them), and I do like the chunky texture that gives me as opposed to “grating” which can sometimes make the carrot a little wet.

The dressing can be blended in a bowl if preferred, and the rest of the salad is prepared by hand so that I get plenty of texture.

This salad goes so well with just about any protein, and is a favourite in our home … with another hot spell fast approaching, this may be one that you would like to try:

Honey Cake – this cake is delicious just on its Honey Cake – this cake is delicious just on its own and does not need icing, but I do try to minimise waste, so when I have little bits of leftover icing from other bakes (in this case Caramel Icing from a Sticky Date Cake I made a month ago, and White Chocolate Icing from the cupcakes I made last week) I put the leftovers into small containers in the freezer … then I can often combine two or three (in this case the two icings I mentioned) which will give me enough for what I need. So last night I took the two icings from the freezer and placed them in the fridge, then this morning I removed them from the fridge and put them on my bench to allow them to come to room temperature, they were then combined and used to dress this cake. It is such a great way to use us icing “scrapes”, and no-one else is the wiser 

Chocolate Buttermilk Cupcakes with White Chocolate Chocolate Buttermilk Cupcakes with White Chocolate Icing … requested for our number 2 son’s birthday today … these are so easy to make, and keep well for a few days at room temperature … but if it is really warm in your home (so that the icing may melt) then I would keep them in the fridge but remove them at least 30 minutes before serving.

To make things super easy for me, I decided to use up some chocolate leftovers from Christmas, so topped the cupcakes with a packet of mini Cherry Ripe’s (one of my favourite), and Nespresso Dark Chocolate tablets (they are super yummy too!) xo

Recipes for both can be found here:

Happy birthday dear Sam … love having you in our lives xo
