Zwarte Piet may be the subject of a heated discussion, but one part of the Sinterklaas celebration is still standing proudly. The gingerbread cookies! Although it is also standard grumbled by whiners 'that they are in the store very early this year'. Don't worry people, don't they taste like gingerbread in October? Especially if you bake them yourself! It is also a very fun activity with the kids. That's why this time a gingerbread recipe.
A delicious gingerbread recipe should of course not be missed during this period. Now that Sinterklaas is almost in the country we can let ourselves go again, I think that is a wonderful period. Especially now that Senn is aware of the whole thing. He has been asking for half a year when Santa is coming again. Even Mette (1 year) was explained in scents and colors that Sinterklaas is coming from Spain with his steamboat. I think that's cute.
The coming weeks will therefore be all about Sinterklaas at my house. The house is decorated with black Piets and Senn has been checking his shoe for days in his Pieten suit. Then you know it's high time for gingerbread cookies! And let's face it:making your own is much more fun and not difficult at all, especially not with this gingerbread recipe. I like to bake the pepernoten weeks in advance, I bake a Sinterklaas cake in the week of Sinterklaas.
Are you also going to bake gingerbread cookies or maybe speculaas? I don't want to withhold the recipe of the gingerbread from you. You can make a lot of gingerbread cookies with it, together with your kids! Have fun baking!
