Soft gingerbread cookies

Method of preparation

Ingredients · Servings 6
  • eggs - 2 pcs.
  • sugar - 1 tsp. cup
  • oil - 120 g
  • honey - 3 tablespoons
  • bicarbonate of soda - 1 tsp.
  • vinegar - 1 tsp
  • cinnamon - 1 teaspoon
  • vanilla - 1 pc.
  • flour - 450 to 500 g
Method · 1 h
  1. Beat the eggs and sugar, add the oil, honey, cinnamon and vanilla. Quench the baking soda in a separate glass with vinegar and add them to the above mixture.
  2. Gradually add the flour and knead until you get a slightly sticky dough. Do not add more than 500 g of flour, as it will make hard gingerbread cookies.
  3. Wash your hands, then grease them with oil. Start forming balls or roll out the dough and cut it into shapes. Place them on a baking sheet with baking paper, leaving some space between them because they will puff up.
  4. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes.
  5. We wait 10 minutes for them to cool and decorate the gingerbread as we wish.
