How to make keto gingerbread man

  1. Grind ginger and orange peel for its zest. At the orange we’ll only need the orange colored part not the white.
  2. Squeeze the orange, we’ll use the juice of it.
  3. Put all ingredients in a medium size mixing bowl except the flour for dusting.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-1-SunCakeMom
  4. Work it together by hand until getting an even dough. Don’t afraid to put a bit more flour into it if it seems too sticky. Much depends on the consistency of the butter. If the butter is soft we need more flour to be able to work with the dough.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-2-SunCakeMom
  5. Take dough out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-3-SunCakeMom
  6. Roll it flat. Flouring underneath the dough is important as this coating will prevent it to stick down.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-4-SunCakeMom
  7. Cut out the shapes with cookie cutters.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-5-SunCakeMom
  8. Place them on the parchment paper lined tray. Use a knife or a spatula to transport the shapes on the tray so they keep their shape.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-6-SunCakeMom
  9. Put Gingerbread man into the 350°F / 180°C preheated oven for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Don’t leave it too long in the oven and be alert as it can burn from one minute to another.Gluten Free Gingerbread-Keto-Process-7-SunCakeMom
  10. Take them out and let them cool down.
  11. Decorate according to taste.
