MODERN RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
- 1 Cup (330) Honey
- 1/2 Loaf (250g) Dry White Bread or Bread Crumbs
- 1 tablespoon Dried Ginger
- 3/4 tsp Long Pepper
- 1/2 tsp Sandalwood
- 1/4 Cup (50g) or less Sugar. Enough for sprinkling
- Several Whole Cloves
- Gold Leaf (Optional)
METHOD
1. Pour the honey into a saucepan and set over medium heat until boiling. Add the bread crumbs, but only enough to have the mixture come together. This could be considerably less that the full 250g depending on the dryness of the bread. Mix until homogenous.
2. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the ginger, long pepper and sandalwood. Then turn it out onto a piece of parchment and roll out to desired thickness. Cover and let cool for several hours or overnight.
3. Once cool, sprinkle sugar on top and cut into whatever shape you like. Garnish with whole cloves (removing them before eating; they will add flavor) and gold.

GINGERBREAD COOKIES | easy recipe with 30 mins chill time
These Gingerbread Cookies are soft, moist, and taste exactly like traditional gingerbread men but without all of the added sugar. Made healthier, they are make ahead and freezer friendly!⬇️⬇️⬇️ CLICK FOR RECIPE ⬇️⬇️⬇️
►INGREDIENTS:
►Cookies
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, more for dusting
1 tbsp ground ginger
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup cane sugar, coconut sugar or brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup unsulphured molasses
►Icing
1/2 cup icing sugar
1 tbsp cold water
????Printable recipe
►DIRECTIONS:
1. In a large bowl, add whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking soda and salt. Whisk until no lumps and set aside.
2. In another large bowl, add butter and sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until combined and creamy.
3. Add egg and molasses. Beat until combined well (don't overbeat to prevent butter separation).
4. Add flour mixture, first stir with spatula and then mix with your hands until a ball of dough forms.
5. Divide it into two balls, place on two separate sheets of plastic wrap, flatten into discs, wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line two large baking sheets with unbleached parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
7. Remove chilled dough from the fridge, let warm up on the counter for 5 minutes, and unwrap from plastic. Dust the surface and rolling pin with flour and roll the dough 1/4 inch thick. If dough is hard and crumbly, roll it out as best as you can, let warm up a few minutes and roll more until 1/4 inch thick.
8. Using your favorite cookie cutters, cut out cookies and transfer to previously prepared baking sheet (loosening with small spatula if necessary), leaving just 1/2 inch in between. These cookies do not spread much. Combine the dough scraps into a ball, roll it out, cut out cookies and repeat until you run out of dough. Repeat the same step with the second disc of dough.
9. Bake for 8 minutes for soft cookies and 12 minutes for crunchy cookies. Do not overbake as cookies will harden during resting. Remove from the oven and let gingerbread cookies first cool off on a baking tray for 15 minutes, then transfer onto a cooling rack to cool off completely.
To decorate cookies (optional)
1. In a small bowl, add icing sugar and water; whisk until smooth and no lumps.
2. Transfer to a sandwich size resealable bag, push to one corner, twist bag on top and cut a tiny hole at the tip. The smaller the better as you can always make the hole bigger but not smaller.
3. Decorate cookies as you wish by pushing icing through the hole. Let icing dry and it will harden and set within a couple of hours. Do not stack them until then.
