The demand for the classic gingerbread recipe has been around since the start of my channel. Though I haven’t found the 100% perfect recipe myself, I have found one that is very close and delicious. The recipe I use is from Nora, a colleague of mine from Onkyo Riddick Escape. Her recipe is fantastic and I have included the link to her blog in the description below for those who want to check it out.

To make the gingerbread dough, I followed Nora’s recipe which includes sugar beet syrup, brown sugar, honey, and water. I brought the mixture to a boil, added the gingerbread spice, and then let it cool to around 50 degrees Celsius. Next, I added butter and let it cool further before adding the dry ingredients. I let the dough rest overnight before rolling it out and cutting it into shapes.

I used a pre-printed gingerbread house template that I found on Google and cut out the shapes before baking them in the oven. To make the windows, I used a sugar substitute called “Somalit” which can be melted down, poured, and then hardens like sugar. I poured the melted “Somalit” into the window cut-outs and let them cool completely before continuing to build the gingerbread house.

Overall, the process was quite straightforward and presented few challenges. The dough Nora created produces a very firm and stable result, which is great for building a gingerbread house. However, if you prefer a softer finish, I would suggest baking at a lower temperature and for less time.

Building and assembling the gingerbread house was a lot of fun and provided plenty of creative freedom. After letting the baked gingerbread pieces cool, I trimmed them down and assembled them based on where I knew I needed to create contact points. Once the house was built, I was able to decorate it even further with tannenbaums and snowflakes.

In conclusion, making a gingerbread house is a fun and rewarding project for anyone who loves baking and decorating. The recipe I used was fantastic and provided a great base for building a gingerbread house. I encourage anyone who is interested in baking a gingerbread house to give it a try, and remember that there are plenty of templates available online to help with the process.
