Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350º and lightly grease two large baking sheets. In a medium sized mixing bowl, sift and then stir together the flour, baking soda, salt, and spices. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter or margarine/palm oil and sugars for several minutes, until light and fluffy.

Add the vanilla extract, egg or egg replacer mixture, and lemon zest to the butter mixture and beat until combined. Slowly pour in the dry ingredients. Stir in the crystallized ginger.

Drop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets by the heaping teaspoon and bake for 9 - 11 minutes, or until the tops of the cookies are slightly golden in color but their texture is still relatively soft. Allow to cool for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack for complete cooling.
