Nutritional values

The gingerbread cookies with coconut contain the trace element iron, which is essential for blood formation and oxygen transport.

For more fiber, vitamins and minerals, you can also replace the spelt flour type 630 with whole spelt flour. Then the gingerbread cookies with coconut will be just a little firmer.

Preparation

Kitchen utensils

1 Baking sheet (approx. 12"x16")

Preparation steps

1.

Heat honey in a saucepan with sugar, butter and gingerbread spice, stirring constantly over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove honey mixture from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Mix baking soda with 2 tablespoons of water.

2.

Sift both types of flour with cocoa powder onto a work surface, pile up and press a hollow in the center. Add honey mixture, dissolved baking soda and egg and knead everything into a smooth dough. Cover and store in the refrigerator overnight.

3.

On a lightly floured work surface, knead dough again well and roll out to baking sheet size. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper, cut edges straight, and bake in preheated oven at 180 °C / 350 °F for 12-15 minutes.

4.

Allow gingerbread to cool slightly. Chop the pistachios. Sprinkle cake with coconut flakes, pistachios and orange zest, cut into 20 pieces and then let cool completely.
