Ginger Nut Biscuits {GF, SF, low FODMAP, low carb}

Sometimes a cuppa tea and a bikkie is all that is needed. Moving away from refined carbohydrates and sugars has been a great life choice for me, but giving up biscuits was a hard one.

These delicious ginger nuts are not going to give you a high nutritional boost, but if it's a biscuit you're after then this one will do the trick, and is not going to do too much damage or give you those sugar spikes and crashes that store bought or traditional biscuits will.

Plust this time of year ginger just seems so appropriate, and they store well to keep on hand for unexpected guests (and they're Gluten Free for any of your Coeliac friends to enjoy).
