- Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF) bake function. Soften the dairy free spread (olive oil spread or butter) slightly but don't melt it. Place the dairy free spread and sugar in a large bowl and mix until light and fluffy. Then mix in the large egg and golden syrup.
- In a separate large bowl whisk together the gluten free all purpose flour, ground ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, ground cloves, salt, and guar gum until well combined. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until well combined.
- Line two cookie trays with baking paper. Scoop the mixture onto the trays - you should fit about 12 cookies per tray (make sure they are evenly spaced). Flatten each cookie slightly and sprinkle the tops with white sugar. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the cookie bases turn slightly golden and the tops start to crack. Remove from oven and leave to cool for two minutes on the cookie tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
- Freezer note: These cookies can also be frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
