The festive month of December brings lots of coziness and treats, especially during Sinterklaas. One of the most beloved treats are undoubtedly the gingerbread nuts. These delicious, spicy cookies are an integral part of the Sinterklaas celebration and provide a warm and nostalgic feeling. The nice thing about gingerbread nuts is that you can not only buy them in the store, but also bake them yourself. This makes it a fun activity for the whole family. Kneading the dough together and rolling small balls, that is really enjoying. We are going to bake delicious healthy gingerbread nuts for Sinterklaas
Kruidnoten and pepernoten are often confused, but they are not the same. Kruidnoten are small, round cookies made with a mix of spices such as cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. They are crunchy on the outside and slightly softer on the inside. Pepernoten, on the other hand, are slightly larger, have a sweeter flavor, and are usually made with a similar spice mix but with more sugar and molasses, giving them a chewy texture.
