HEALTHIER BIG SOFT GINGER COOKIES



Healthier Big Soft Ginger Cookies image

These are just what they say: big, soft, gingerbread cookies that stay soft. This healthier version of the original recipe uses butter instead of margarine, less sugar, and some white whole wheat flour.

Categories     Desserts     Cookies     Gingerbread Cookie Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup unsalted butter
¾ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
¼ cup molasses
3 tablespoons natural (raw) sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Sift together all-purpose flour and whole-wheat flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
  • Beat butter and 3/4 cup sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in egg, then stir in water and molasses. Gradually stir in flour mixture until just incorporated. Roll dough into walnut-sized balls and place 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets; flatten slightly.
  • Bake in preheated oven until cookies are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

HEALTHIER GINGERBREAD



Healthier Gingerbread image

This is moist and delicious, with more fiber and less fat than most recipes. It comes from The Healthy Oven Baking Book by Sarah Phillips, which I recommend VERY highly. Phillips has developed new mixing techniques that allow you to make light, moist baked goods without a lot of fat.

Time 1h10m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 dash nonstick canola oil cooking spray
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spoon into cup, then level off)
1 cup whole wheat flour (spoon into cup and level off)
1 tablespoon minced crystallized ginger (or more!)
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup hot water
1 cup molasses
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 large egg
2 tablespoons canola oil

Steps:

  • Because lowfat recipes are very sensitive, follow all the measuring and mixing instructions exactly, or you may get a heavy, dry result.
  • Measure flour by spooning it gently into the measuring cup, then leveling off.
  • Place oven rack at center position and preheat oven to 350°.
  • Spray 8 x 8" square nonstick baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Combine flours, spices, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl and stir lightly with a fork.
  • In another bowl, combine water, molasses, brown sugar, applesauce, egg and oil and beat with a mixer on high speed until mixture is frothy (about 2 minutes).
  • Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients.
  • Pour the wet into the dry and stir gently, just enough to moisten thoroughly.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan, level gently, and place in oven.
  • Bake 50 minutes or until the top springs back when touched gently and edges pull away from the sides of the pan.
  • Be careful not to overbake.
  • Serve warm or cold, plain, sprinkled with confectioner's sugar, or with the dessert sauce of your choice.
  • I like it best warm with some slightly runny fruit preserves on top.

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, ginger, cinnamon, salt, cloves, pepper, baking soda and baking powder. Whisk until blended.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the coconut oil and molasses and whisk until combined. Add the coconut sugar and whisk until blended. (If the sugar is gloppy and won’t incorporate into the mixture, warm the mixture for about 20 seconds in the microwave or over low heat on the stove, just until you can whisk it all together.) Add the egg and whisk until the mixture is thoroughly blended.
  • Pour the liquid mixture into the dry and mix just until combined. (If it seems like you don’t have enough liquid, just keep mixing!) Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a round disc about 1 inch thick and wrap it in plastic wrap. Place both discs in the refrigerator and chill until cold—about 1 hour, or up to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit with racks in the middle and upper third of the oven. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Lightly flour your working surface and roll out one of your discs out until it’s 1/4 inch thick. If the dough is very hard or crumbly, just roll it as best you can and then let it rest for a few minutes to warm up. Repeat until you’ve successfully rolled the dough to 1/4 inch thickness.
