Christmas Gingerbread
Baking Christmas gingerbread is a time of the year when we are reminded of our childhood. We know that in many homes it is a tradition to prepare, decorate and - finally - hang them on the Christmas tree. Not with us - we eat them too quickly! And in December, we bake them at least once a week. Every day we involve our children in all activities in the kitchen. Also now, before Christmas, we test recipes together, prepare products and prepare gingerbread. We have a lot of fun with it: children - because making dough is the best fun in the world! Will it be a mess? Oh yes. Flour spilled on the table and under it, hands and noses smeared in the dough and it would be faster if we did it ourselves. But it's not always about getting faster. Sometimes it's all about being together. Our gingerbread cookies are an absolute Christmas classic. We use a lot of freshly ground gingerbread spice for them, so there is a mandatory smell of Christmas in the apartment. Try to bake them with us.
