gingerbread cookie

Materials:  

2 measuring cups / 250 g buckwheat or white flour

1 teaspoon of baking powder

1 teaspoon ginger powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon of nutmeg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 measuring cup / 100 g coconut sugar or granulated sugar

1 teaspoon ground chia seeds (egg substitute) or 1 egg

2 tablespoons / 15 g coconut oil (not melted)

 

Frosting:

Powdered sugar

Water

 

Cookies Making:  

 

1. Put the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well. You can adjust the powders according to your own taste. 

2. In another bowl, whisk together chia seeds, vanilla extract, sugar and coconut oil. (If using eggs, beat with egg instead of chia seeds) 

3. Slowly add the dry ingredients and mix well. 

4. Gently knead the dough with your hands and form a ball, cover it with wrap. (I use @mumowrap) Refrigerate for 45 minutes.

5. Set the oven to 180 degrees, place the parchment paper on the tray. 

6. Lay another parchment paper on the kitchen counter. Place the dough and place a second sheet of wax paper on top of it. 

7. Roll out a half cm thick dough with the help of a rolling pin. Shape the dough with the cookie mould and place them on the tray. 

8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until slightly darkened around. Wait until it cools down and decorate.  

 

How to make Frosting decorating sugar:  

 

Put 2-3 tablespoons of water in 150 g of powdered sugar and beat with a mixer. If it is too dry, add water little by little. The consistency you want is a semi-fluid consistency. Put this mixture in a piping bag and decorate your cookies :))

 

Be healthy and happy!
