For shaping or a structure you need a less crumbly biscuit, and this is perfect. It makes quite a lot, so if you're not making a house, you might want to start with half quantities (half quantity was enough for 6 mini houses)
380g Wheat Free Plain Flour
1tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
2tsp Ground Ginger
1tsp Ground Cinnamon
150g Light Soft Brown Sugar (or any other sugar)
125g Dairy and Soya Free Spread
4tbsp Milk Substitute
4tbsp Golden Syrup
Put dry ingredients in a bowl.
 |
| This has dark brown soft sugar |
Rub in dairy free spread until it looks like soft sand.
Use a blunt knife (or spoon, if you are making it with children) to mix in milk substitute and syrup until it starts to come together.
 |
| If you measure the milk substitute in first, the syrup won't stick to the spoon... |
Knead lightly to form a smooth dough.
 |
| You can add a little more flour if the mix is too sticky. |
Roll out onto a well floured surface (I put cling film on top to stop it sticking to rolling pin, also reduces risk of cross contamination from rolling pin) to about 5mm (slightly thicker for gingerbread houses).
Decorate.
