This cookie dough is cooked over fading grill embers with a covered skillet, using indirect heat instead of an oven. The warm spices of cinnamon, ginger, and cloves pair well with morning tea and offer a way to use the coals after a barbecue.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the Dough

15 min

Beat the room-temperature butter and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy, then add the egg and mix. Add the flour, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, baking powder, and salt. Knead until a smooth dough forms.

2

Chill the Dough

30 min

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes so it will not stick to your hands when shaping.

3

Set Up the Grill

10 min

Push the coals to one side of the grill to create an indirect-heat zone in the center. Roll the dough into portions of about 20 grams and arrange them in a covered cast-iron skillet with space between them.

4

Bake over the Embers

45 min

Cover the skillet and place it over the warmer area of the coals. Check occasionally and rotate the skillet as needed. Cook for about 45 minutes, until the bottoms of the cookies are lightly browned.

Reminder

Do not place the skillet over the hottest coals; the bottoms may burn before the tops cook. Use the warmer area where the coals have been pushed to the side. Allergen: Contains wheat (gluten), dairy, and eggs.
