It's very Christmassy here. Too early, you think? Not for an event planning company! We've been thinking about Christmas for months and planning the most wonderful Christmas parties. To mark the occasion, today we have a recipe for cinnamon stars.
Don't let the word "vegan" put you off. Vegan food can be delicious. And you'll find that these cinnamon stars are extremely tasty. We found the recipe on the lovely blog krümelkreationen. Get into the Christmas spirit and bake them together with your loved ones or colleagues. And when you're really in the Christmas spirit, looking forward to candlelight and mulled wine, then it's the best time to think about this year's Christmas party. Have you already planned everything? Or have your colleagues not yet agreed on how to celebrate this year? Then I would like to recommend our Real Irish Christmas Party on December 16 in Düsseldorf-Neuss. Here you will be offered everything that makes a Christmas party an event.
But now first to the recipe
You need:
200 g icing sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon
8 tbsp. water
1 tbsp. lemon juice
200 g ground hazelnuts
200 g ground almonds
1 tbsp grated orange peel
some flour
And for the icing:
150 g icing sugar
a little water
1 tsp cinnamon
Mix all the ingredients together, except the flour. Knead everything together carefully. Now dust your work surface generously with flour. The dough may become very sticky. In that case, just knead some more flour into the dough. Now roll out the dough and cut out small stars. Of course, you can use any other shape for your cookies. But for real cinnamon stars are best. Now bake everything in the oven at 250 °C for just 5 minutes. Watch out: The cinnamon stars will become too dry if they stay in the oven longer.
While the stars are baking, you can mix the icing. It should be nice and thick. Brush the cinnamon stars with it when they are still hot or warm. Now let the finished creations cool on a cooling rack and you can enjoy them soon!
