Notes
Tips:
- To cut candied ginger, cover the slices in flour and apply oil on the knife to reduce the stickiness while chopping. Also, I usually like my baked goods less sweet.
- For regular sweetness add 1 cup sugar (225g)! Vegan Version: Replace egg by any egg replacer or a teaspoon of flax meal mixed in 3 teaspoons water.
- Adjust water to get thick batter, not too runny. Bake and gobble with some tea or coffee!
