Method
 

How to Make Triple-Ginger Rye Cookies
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your cookies bake evenly and achieve that wonderful golden color.
  2. Combine the all-purpose flour, dark rye flour, baking powder, ground ginger, and a pinch of kosher salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly dispersed.
  3. Mix together the granulated sugar and melted butter in another bowl until it’s creamy. This step is key to infusing your cookies with richness and flavor!
  4. Add the eggs, molasses, fresh ginger, and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture, whisking until well combined. This mixture will bring all the glorious flavors together.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture while stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!
  6. Scoop tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each mound. They will spread while baking, creating those beautiful cookie shapes.
  7. Sprinkle turbinado sugar on top of each cookie before placing them in the oven. This creates a flavorful, crunchy topping that adds an extra layer of deliciousness.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn a light golden brown. Keep an eye on them; you want a chewy center with a beautiful exterior!
