Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the molasses and vanilla extract.
-
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until well combined. Stir in the crystallized ginger and sliced almonds.
-
Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log about 12 inches long. Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
-
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C). Using a serrated knife, cut the logs into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place the slices back on the baking sheet, cut side down.
-
Bake for an additional 10 minutes, then flip the slices over and bake for another 10 minutes, or until crisp and golden.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
