Gingerbread tea latte recipe
Make some gingerbread stars to hang from your Christmas tree. Heat the butter, syrup and sugar together in a small pan until melted, stirring occasionally. Mix together the bicarb, ginger, cinnamon and flour in a gingerbread tea latte recipe bowl. Pour in the buttery syrup mixture and stir to combine, then use your hands to bring together to form a dough.
Add up to 1 tbsp of milk to combine if needed. The dough will be soft at this point, but it’ll firm up in the fridge. Put the dough on a sheet of baking parchment, shape into a rectangle, and lay another sheet of parchment on top of it. Transfer to a baking sheet to keep it flat, leaving the parchment in place, then chill in the fridge for 1 hr. 5 and line a large baking sheet with more baking parchment. Remove the dough from the fridge and cut out shapes using a cookie cutter. We used 9cm stars, but you can choose any shape.
We also made some with smaller stars cut out of the centre to thread ribbon through and hang from a Christmas tree. Place the shapes, spread apart, on the lined baking sheet, and bake for 10-12 mins. Leave to cool completely on the baking sheet. Decorate the cooled biscuits with the icing using a piping bag with a thin nozzle. Find out how to make a piping bag.

The meaning of gingerbread has evolved over time. For centuries the term referred to a traditional European pastry, very like a modern cookie, traditionally used to make gingerbread men. It gained fame in the realm and abroad when it was brought to Sweden by German immigrants. Gingerbread was a popular treat at medieval European festivals and fairs, and there were even dedicated gingerbread fairs. The first documented trade of gingerbread biscuits in England dates to the 17th century, where they were sold in monasteries, pharmacies, and town square farmers’ markets. One hundred years later, the town of Market Drayton in Shropshire became known for its gingerbread, as is displayed on their town’s welcome sign, stating that it is the “home of gingerbread”. Gingerbread came to the Americas with settlers from Europe.
