Ingredients
60 g coarsely chopped walnuts
40 g slivered almonds
2 (medium) eggs
150 g brown sugar
220 g flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
80-100 g candied ginger (finely chopped)
Method
Toast both kinds of nuts without fat.
Beat eggs and sugar to make a creamy mass. Sift flour and baking powder into the same bowl. Add nuts and ginger and knead together.
From the sticky soft dough form a small loaf of at least 25 cm length. Bake for 160°C for 45 min on a baking sheet lined with non-stick paper till golden.
Leave to cool for 20 minutes. Then cut into 1 cm thick slices. Bake slices for 10 minutes from each side.
(if slices are too big half diagonally before second baking like in the picture)
