Ingredients
  

  • 350 g flour
  • 100 g sugar
  • 40 g margarine
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 egg
  • 0.5 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground dried ginger

Method
 

  1. Combine all ingredients except the flour in a bowl and set it over a pot of simmering water. Cook the mixture for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally with a whisk, until it rises and becomes fluffy.
  2. Remove the bowl from the heat, add the flour in parts and knead the dough. Gather it into a ball, cover, and chill in the fridge for 1 hour to rest.
  3. Place the dough on a floured surface and roll it out very thin. Cut out shapes and transfer them to a floured baking sheet.
  4. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 5-7 minutes. Let the finished pieces cool completely - they can be eaten as is or decorated with icing. Enjoy!

Notes

Baked goods made from honey dough keep well and hold their aroma for a long time.
