gingernut biscuits
November 9th, 2008
You might not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes gingernut biscuits but it is achievable. It is fundamental to not eat gingernut biscuits or other high calorie tea & accompanyments every day but in moderation.
As an example, I allow myself these kinds of food once per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1400 to 1800 calories a day, and then 1 day, I eat what I please - within reason of course.
I have been sticking to this diet for the last 2 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise plan or taken any vitamins or diet food. I have just been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I want one day per week.
I also find it is helpful if you have professional support when on a weight loss program and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have several tools to show you how to monitor your progress and reach your goals.

Gingernut Biscuits
The English use golden syrup. Try it if you can find it at a specialty store.
1 cup unbleached flour
1 1/4 teaspoons freshly ground ginger
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 tablespoons margarine
2 tablespoons maple syrup or golden syrup
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Sift flour, ginger and baking soda into a large mixing bowl, toss in the sugar, then lightly rub in the margarine with your fingertips until the mixture is crumbly. Add syrup and mix all together to form a stiff paste.
Divide paste into 16 equal pieces by cutting the mixture in half, then each half into halves and so on. Make sure that each cookie is the same size. Toll each piece into a ball between the palms of your hands. Place each ball on a large, lightly greased baking sheet, leaving plenty of room for each to expand. Using a wooden spoon, press down on each one to flatten it slightly. Put into the oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until they are done.
Remove from the oven and leave on the sheet for a little while. Using a spatula, place each on a wire rack for final cooling. Eat immediately with vanilla ice cream or store in an airtight container.
