Directions
These are great gingerbread cookies for Christmas! The dough turns out to be soft and pliable, it is easy to roll it out and cut out figures from it. It’s a perfect gluten-free option to bake with the kids before the holidays.
But please don’t ask me about its health benefits! Yes, it has buckwheat and almond flour and coconut sugar, but it’s a classic cookie – very sweet, spicy and crunchy! It’s good for the soul:) So don’t get carried away!
In the recipe, there are 100 grams of black molasses, which makes the cookies moderately dark. If you want to make darker cookies, replace a small part of the honey with molasses. For lighter cookies, replace some of the molasses with maple syrup or other syrup, but don’t overdo it so the dough doesn’t turn out too liquidy.
Bon Appétit and Merry Christmas!

Take them out and let them cool for a few minutes on a baking sheet. When the cookies are thick enough to be moved, put them on a rack and let them cool completely (!). Decorate the cookies with a colorful sugar glaze. |
