- Preheat the oven at 180°C. Melt the butter, sugar and maple syrup in a pan.
- Mix the flour, bicarbonate of soda, ground ginger and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
- Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the melted butter and sugar mixture.

- Roll out your dough between two sheets of baking paper, to the thickness of a £1 coin.
- Cut out your biscuit shapes and bake for 10-12 mins.
TO MAKE THE ICING
