Method

  1. Gently melt the honey, butter3, and sugar over low heat, stirring until smooth, then cool for 5 minutes.

  2. Add the egg, salt, grated ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and baking soda, then mix in the flour to form a soft dough.

  3. Wrap the dough and chill for 20 minutes to firm up for rolling.

  4. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Roll the dough to ¼-inch (6–7 mm) thickness and cut into gingerbread shapes.

  5. Bake for 10 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until the edges are lightly golden, then cool completely.

  6. Mix powdered sugar with lemon11 juice until it forms a thick, pourable glaze.

  7. Drizzle the glaze over the gingerbread and let it set for 20–30 minutes.

Tips

Why it works
Остуди смесь из мёда, масла и сахара 5 минут, чтобы не сварилось яйцо при добавлении — белок свернётся от высокой температуры.
Substitutions
Замени мёд 16 г сахарным сиропом (1:1 с водой), если нет мёда. Вместо лимонного сока возьми уксус (1 ч. л.), но глазурь будет менее яркой.
Common mistakes
Тесто растрескается при выпечке, если пересушено или раскатано слишком тонко — края будут сухими, а середина сыроватой.
Storing and reheating
Храни в герметичном контейнере 5 дней. Подогревай 10 секунд в микроволновке, чтобы глазурь не потрескалась.
Serve with
Подавай с чаем или какао на новогоднем столе, когда нужно что-то сладкое, но не тяжёлое.
