Directions

120 min.
1. Step

First, mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl - i.e. flour, baking powder, gingerbread spices and salt.

2. Step

Place the butter and sugar in another bowl and beat until smooth. Then stir in the honey and add the egg.

3. Step

Then slowly add the dry mixture to the bowl with the wet ingredients and stir until a stiff dough forms.

4. Step

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll out to a thickness of approximately 5mm. This is very important, a greater thickness would not make the gingerbread brittle enough.

5. Step

Then just cut out different shapes with the moulds and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.

6. Step

Bake the gingerbread in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 10-12 minutes.

7. Step

After baking, let the gingerbread cookies cool on a wire rack.
