Divine cookies for the Christmas holidays

2023. 12. 05.

Why cake is the soul of Christmas?

What would Christmas be without cookies? It's like imagining Santa Claus without a beard! Cakes are magical bridges that connect families across generations. It is no coincidence that the tradition of Christmas baking is so deeply rooted in our culture.

The tradition lives on to this day and always manages to be reinterpreted. Today, we not only follow traditional recipes, but also experiment with our own, unique flavors and forms. But the bottom line remains the same: cakes bring family and friends together and fill the house with love, laughter and, of course, seductive aromas. This is how the cake truly becomes the soul of Christmas: each bite brings us the magic of the holiday.

Christmas roll - differently

It's time to discover the new face of the christmas roll! Leave the usual versions behind and feel free to experiment!

You can put practically anything in the filling - and you don't have to think about extreme things right away! How about adding some dried fruit to the walnuts - like blueberries or cherries, or maybe a pinch of orange peel? Or try poppy seeds in combination with small pieces of apple or peach to get a refreshing, fruity flavor!

And don't stop there! Dough also offers opportunities for experimentation. How about adding some cocoa powder or cinnamon for an even richer flavor experience? Or you can make the christmas roll even more special by decorating the top of the dough with unique designs - for example, Christmas motifs.

With these innovations, you can not only surprise your family and friends, but also create a new tradition for the holidays.

Healthy yet delicious holiday treats

Who said that what is healthy cannot be delicious? Put away the traditional sugar-sweetened cakes and discover healthy yet mouth-watering alternatives. Try using sweeteners such as erythritol, xylitol or stevia, which can achieve the same sweet taste as sugar. And don't forget about natural sweeteners: honey, agave syrup and dates not only sweeten, but also enrich the flavors.

Healthy baking is not only about the ingredients, but also about the methods. Try to bake at a low temperature to preserve the nutritional content of the ingredients. These small changes not only protect your health, but also open up a new world of flavors!

Gluten-free Christmas

Gluten-free baking is not just a fashion trend, but a lifestyle that is becoming important for more and more people for health reasons. But don't worry, gluten-free baking doesn't mean you have to give up Christmas treats!

First, there are tons of options in the world of gluten-free flours. Almond, coconut, rice, or even buckwheat flour - each gives a unique taste and texture to the cakes. Experiment with these flours to find the flavor you like best. A little tip: almond flour works especially well with Christmas cookies, as it gives them a rich, nutty flavor. You can even produce flour at home with a manual grain mill!

Don't forget thickeners, such as xanthan gum or guar gum, to help keep the texture of the dough. With a little experimentation, you can make perfectly crumbly and delicious cookies that no one will think are gluten-free.

When baking gluten-free, it is also important to avoid cross-contamination. If you have someone in your family who is gluten intolerant, make sure you clean kitchen utensils and surfaces thoroughly to avoid gluten getting into your food.
