Rye and Honey Biscuits with Ginger and Cinnamon

Delicious Swedish biscuits with ginger and cinnamon, flavors that you will not notice at all when they mix with the rye and the honey.

I am a big fan of chocolate biscuits, but these biscuits are really tasty.

Ingredients

170 g rye flour (brown or white)

90 g wheat flour

200 g butter

65 g sugar (brown if possible)

35 g honey

1 egg

3 g salt (1/3 tsp)

1 tsp full of powdered ginger

1 tsp full of powdered cinnamon

1 tsp baking soda.
