Polish classical gingerbread cakes called 'Katarzynki" (Catherines)

Everybody knows, Katarzynki that come from Torun. But did you know, what is the origin of the names of these gingerbread? Carrying a couple of legends. Each of them tells, as the origins of gingerbread. I most liked the legend, a little girl, that during the illness of his father, the baker, decided to replace it in the baking gingerbread. The preparation of the dough did not have a problem, but it appeared at the time of, when she was put into the form of a cake. She could not find her, So cut out the cup wheels and poukładał them on a baking tray, six side by side. When baking, circles joined together and thus created gingerbread Katarzynki. Torun residents liked the new shape of gingerbread and baked are to this day:). I invite you to My gingerbread, very easy and fast in execution. Well, cut longer appropriate mold:) Aaa, and their great advantage is that, that there are no added fat. Needless to say, they are delicious… I recommend a very!

I found the recipe on the side Tucker.

Katarzynki | Polish classical gingerbread cakes called 'Katarzynki" (Catherines)

Ingredients for approximately 40 gingerbread:

  • 400g of wheat flour
  • 150g of liquid honey
  • 50g melasy
  • 100g light muscovado sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp spices for gingerbread
  • 1 heaping tablespoon of cocoa
  • 1 heaping tablespoon of sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

In a bowl, mix the honey, cukier i melasę. Add egg, cream and spice to gingerbread. Thoroughly mix all together. For the second vessel sift flour with baking powder, baking soda and cocoa. Combine contents of both vessels. Knead the dough. If it was too dry, add a dash of cream.

Roll out the dough to a thickness of 05 – 1cm in diameter. Cut gingerbread mold. Arrange on a baking tray lined with baking paper.

Bake at 190 ° C for 12 – 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the gingerbread. I baked my 13 minut.Po this time, remove from the oven, cool and put into cans. Immediately after baking gingerbread cookies are soft, but quickly harden, after a few weeks to do a soft again. As always with gingerbread, You can help them, putting the cans of apple peel pierniczkami.

Właśnie mnie korci żeby coś upiec. No i obiecałam córce Katarzynki.
W tym roku w podręczniku miała legendę o Katarzynkach no i nakręciła się. U niej w legendzie było, że dziewczynka nie umiała sobie poradzić z ojcowymi foremkami bo były za ciężkie dla niej, i wzięła mały kubeczek. Tylko nie mam takiej foremki i melasy. Ale jutro udaję się na zakupy to i melasa się pojawi. A foremkę… look for, jak się nie znajdzie to będą niestety prawie Katarzynki.

Very good, But as for me, the taste of molasses is a little too strong for a typical katarzynki. Despite this generally much we tasted ginger:)

They look great! Where zakupiłaś the mold for punching? And there are no eggs, this bodes well for. I wonder if I replace the honey syrup plant to come out so pretty too?:)
