Gingerbread with sugar

Cookinero 5 Aug 2025

The tradition of drinking tea with sweets appeared in Rus', because the main thing at the table was heart-to-heart talks, and not enjoying the drink itself, as, for example, in Japan. If you, like most of your compatriots, like to complement your tea drinking with something tasty, we suggest making gingerbread. Delicate, soft and sweet pastries will appeal to both adults and children.

Gingerbread with sugar - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use aquafaba (the liquid from canned chickpeas) or a commercial egg replacer to make the glaze vegan. Whip it just like egg whites until fluffy.
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. For longer freshness, place parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking.
Yes, replace the regular flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. Ensure all other ingredients (like baking powder) are certified gluten-free.
Blend granulated sugar in a high-speed blender or food processor until fine, or use honey or maple syrup for a different sweetness (though the texture will vary).
Yes! Freeze unbaked dough (rolled and cut) for up to 3 months, or freeze baked cookies (unglazed) in an airtight bag. Thaw at room temperature before glazing.
Add 1-2 tbsp more milk to the dough, or reduce baking time by 2-3 minutes for a chewier texture. Avoid overbaking.
Dust with cinnamon, add sprinkles to the glaze, or sandwich two cookies with jam or Nutella for a festive twist.
