The gingerbread cookie, which has become famous as the “Gingerbread Cookie”, is also very easy to make. Ginger was brought to Europe in the 900s by Gregory Makar , an Armenian monk. Gregory Makar taught the French how to bake gingerbread. In the 13th century, ginger was brought to Sweden by German immigrants. As of the 17th century, this cookie began to be baked for Christmas and Easter and later spread to every period. Gingerbread cookies became even more widespread in the 18th century with their nutritional properties. They also made these delicious cookies into cute shapes, the most popular of which is the cookie man called the “gingerbread man”, which is in the shape of a man.

How to Make Gingerbread Winter Cookies?

• Add oil, egg and sweetener to a bowl and mix well with a mixer.
• Sift the flours in another bowl and mix all the other ingredients thoroughly.
• Slowly pour the solid mixture into the bowl containing the oil, keeping the mixer running.
• When the mixture reaches a dough consistency, divide it into 3 balls, wrap them in cling film and leave them in the fridge for 1.5 hours.
• Take the dough out of the fridge, place one piece between 2 sheets of wax paper and roll it out with a rolling pin. The dough will soften as it warms up. If the dough starts to break, roll it out as much as you can and let it rest at room temperature.
• When it reaches a height of about 1/2 cm, shape/cut it with your molds.
• Place greaseproof paper on your tray and place the shaped dough on it.
• Bake your shaped dough for 8-10 minutes in your oven, which you have preheated to 170 degrees.

Tips for Winter Gingerbread Cookies

• The ingredients you use should be at room temperature.
