1.Put the flour, ginger and soda into a bowl and rub in the butter.
2.Add sugar and stir in the syrup and egg to make a firm dough.
3.Roll out to about 5mm thick and cut out your gingerbread men. If you don't have a gingerbread man cutter then use whatever you have - stars and hearts are just as tasty.
4.Bake at 190 C /Gas 5 on greased baking trays (spaced out, as they will spread) for 10 to 15 mins until golden brown. Leave to firm up for a couple of minutes before placing on a wire rack to cook.
5.Once cooled, decorate with icing.
