Hi Jane, Could I substitute the egg with something else to make these vegan?

Such an easy recipe and safe to make with children, my daughter loved making these for her halloween party.
Are they supposed to be slightly soft? I am not sure if they needed to be cooked for a couple of minutes longer but I didnt want to overcook them.

In reply to Zara. Hiya! I would use flora plant butter. Hope this helps! x

These look amazing! If I wanted to make these dairy free, which butter alternative would you suggest?

Thank you!

Would these work substituting the egg for something else my son has an allergy?

My 8yo just made these. Our cutter must be smaller cause we got 16 out of half the mixture. Hoping the rest of the dough will be OK in the fridge for a few days. It’s a good kid friendly mild tasting recipe, the kids aren’t into it as much when recipes add cloves & Treacle etc too.

Love this idea, yet another variation on the gingerbread man!! I always decorate them upsidedown at Christmas, give them 2 eyes, and a red smartie nose on the “head”, pipe antlers on the legs and hey presto, gingerbread rudolphs….

These are great!
Does the fondant keep in the air right container? I’m just worried it’ll sweat??
Thanks

Used this recipe to make Halloween bats with my daughter as we didn’t have a man shaped cutter, Oh my god they were amazing!!! My daughter ate two, I ate the rest just the perfect gingerbread!

Used this recipe to make some spooky shaped gingerbread for Halloween and it was amazing! so much tastier then the recipe I usually use and I can’t wait to use it again for Christmas. Thanks for coming to my rescue Jane!!

I made these yesterday – not usually a fan of gingerbread (was trying to be festive!) so halved the amount of ginger, they are so good! Thank you for another brill recipe!
