Gluten Free Gingerbread Cookies W Sea Salt Caramel Rum Raisin Filling Food

GLUTEN FREE GINGERBREAD COOKIES W/ SEA SALT CARAMEL RUM RAISIN FILLING

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place raisins and 2 cups of water in a medium size mixing bowl. Heat for 3 minutes in microwave, let sit for 5 minutes to soften, then drain.
• While the raisins are soaking, combine 2 cups of the walnuts, flax meal, sorghum flour, maple syrup, spices, and baking soda, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt in a food processor. Add 1/2 cup of softened raisins, and process the ingredients in the food processor until moist and mixture starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
• Divide dough into 16 balls and place on un-greased baking sheet. Use your thumb to press each cookie ball, then bake for 8-10 minutes, or until cookies are lightly browned around the edges. Allow cookies to cool completely before removing from the baking sheet.
• Make the sea salt rum raisin caramel filling while the cookies are baking, by combining the remaining 1/2 cup of raisins and 1/4 cup of walnuts, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt with the rum (or vanilla) and coconut oil in a small food processor or blender, and processing, scraping the sides of the food processor or blender as needed, until mixture is relatively smooth.
• Spoon 1 teaspoon filling onto each cookie, and serve.

GLUTEN-FREE GINGERBREAD

Steps:

• In a small pan heat the butter, syrup and sugar together until melted, stirring occasionally. Set to one side to cool slightly. In a large bowl mix together the bicarb, ginger, cinnamon and flour. Pour in the melted butter mixture and stir to combine and using your hands, bring together to form a dough. This will be soft but will set up in the fridge.
• Take 2 sheets of greaseproof paper, lay the dough down on one, shape it into a rectangle and place the other sheet on top of it. Roll the dough out to 1/2 cm thick and put flat in the fridge for 1 hour to set and firm up.
• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and line a large baking tray with non-stick greaseproof paper. Take the rolled dough out of the fridge and cut out shapes from it. We did 9cm stars, but you can also choose any shape, depending on the size it will need a few mins less/more in the oven. We also did some with, smaller stars cut out the centre of them.
• Meanwhile make the icing, combine the icing sugar with 1 - 2 tbsp water, until it's thick and pipeable but not thin enough that it will run. Decorate the cooled biscuits with whatever designs
