Professional Baker Teaches You How To Make PFEFFERNUSSE COOKIES!

[@1erinjames]

I've been so intimated to try to make pfeffernusse cookies. This makes it seem easy!! Thank you!

[@Anakianaj]

there are about as many recipes for those cookies as there are households who have them as a staple. - The way i do them is quite similar, yet a little different. So, for anyone feeling like experimenting: - two more flavours, same amount: 100% cocoa powder and ground ginger (also a pinch of salt ought to be in every cake or cookie dough). - heavy cream instead of butter. - heat the spices up together with the honey, then add the rest - eggs last so they dont scramble. - use rye flour (up to 70% of the total flour used) - use wet hands to roll the dough-balls - it can get very sticky otherwise. - lemon-and-sugar-glaze instead of powedered sugar

[@Blaciu]

Very similar in my household. Only differences are that we use white pepper instead of black, and no cocoa powder. And when making the glaze, we use milk instead of water (and no lemon juice) to give them a nice shine

[@jslezak57]

AMAZING recipe!!! I made Pfeffernusse years ago with a complicated recipe and burned out a hand mixer - I swore I'd never make them again. Then I saw your recipe - it was so easy to make and they turned out perfectly! I used a measured disher scoop and they were consistent in size and they baked beautifully.... taste just like my German grandmother used to make. Thank you, Anna for this recipe. It's definitely a winner and a welcomed addition to my cookbook

[@jcgarcia1168]

Love that you just cut to the chase, made the cookies without talking forever. Also looks like a great recipe. Thanks!

[@Kivas_Fajo]

Pro Tip to make them moist and edible, because they are hard as a rock after baking. Slice an apple and half-dry the slices in the oven. Add them on a piece of parchment paper in the box you keep the cookies and they will absorbe the moisture emitting from the half-dried apple slices. Take care they do not mold by adding lemon juice on the slices before and after baking. Not only will the peppernuts be soft, they will also absorb the aromas from the apple, which makes them extra nice.

Oh my gosh! My mom used to buy these as a kid, I’m not German and I had no idea what they were, just that they were delicious and my childhood cookie. I can never find them anymore. Thank you for this recipe!

[@raeraechie]

This almost exactly my great grandma's recipe. We just don't use any sugar, just (more) honey. They're the best cookie for the holidays. ❤. Great to come across your video.

[@maryspiering1205]

Just made a batch of these and they turned out just like you described, a delicious cookie bursting with flavor and wonderful texture ! Thank you for this fantastic recipe! Will be serving for Christmas if I can keep my husband from eating them all….Thinking they will last awhile and get better with age. These were my dad’s favorite also, so making them in honor of him. Enjoy those precious times with your parents. Thank you !

[@Lafortuneist]

I used to have these cookies as a kid while I was living in Germany. I never forgot how they tasted like. thank you for the recipe.

[@JB-js8uv]

My mom always had these for Christmas time. I'm from Canada. My favourite Christmas cookie lol.

[@spanish_regime_4hundred363]

Never had these cookies before and I could not get enough of them. I doubled the recipe and I’m sharing it with my coworkers. Tfs, Anna. Stay safe!

[@jozefkay3179]

[@JayTeaFromTheVenus]

I watch you from Germany and bake them every year. Sometimes I dip them in chocolate.

[@ohyum]

That's a wonderful idea!

[@Sophie-kc8xr]

I‘m from Germany and let me say that the way how you pronounce „Pfeffernüsse“ is almost PERFECT👍🏻💕. I‘m watching your videos for a while now. (especially in quarantine) And I love them! I baked some of your recipes and they went perfect. You‘re explaining everything so well. In my opinion you’re one of the best you tuber. Best wishes from Germany💕

[@ekinyildirim136]

Since you are from Germany, do they taste like Lambertz's gingerbread? The recipe reminded me of those shaped like pretzels. 😊

[@zarabees2123]

JayTeaBakes how long do they keep these cookies. With thanks

[@AmusingCreativeFun]

I feel like tasting Pfeffernusse Cookies after seeing this video

[@TheInsecureChef]

Excellent, excellent recipe. Simple directions and as long as you can use measuring spoons it is basically foolproof (and believe me, if I can make these, the recipe MUST be foolproof). Great texture and flavor. Wonderful for Thanksgiving, Christmas or anytime! Thanks Anna!

[@lapinkchef76]

Thank you so much Anna! I was searching for that recipe! Greetings from Cairo, Egypt

[@zarabees2123]

Corina Andreea M Any idea how long these cookies can be kept. With thanks

[@collindelange5344]

In the netherlands we have something very similar called pepernoten (same meaning) but also something more spicy called kruidnoten, which are delicious.

[@suzannestorms9496]

this recipe was very good and the cookies turned out perfectly

[@0427WowCow]

When I made mine I used Chinese 5 spice and a lemon glaze instead of powdered sugar, but I'm definitely going to try this recipe =)

[@gialoretta1903]

Hi Anna, love the video and I was wondering why my batter didn’t come out as stiff as yours? Maybe you can help me out, thanks!

Thank you for a new and "better" Pfeffernusse Cookie than I have been making all these years. Can you tell me what kind/brand oven you have there, i've never seen one like that.

[@muktatelang587]

That's for bakers or bakery in which they have to make alot of stuff everyday

[@susantesta2591]

Great recipe Anna! Would you please provide the source for your spice jars? Thanks and Merry Christmas!

[@tammiemartinez6485]

When you said black pepper I didn't bat an eyelash, lol. The first pumpkin pie I made from scratch last year called for, you guessed it. Black pepper!! Its crazy. I can NOT stand to eat black licorice but fennel and anise? Not a problem, 🤷‍♀️...

[@tjaryma]

You should do something Polish like poppy seed roulade made from brioche-like dough (makowiec) or Polish honey cake (piernik).

[@ayeshasawa6381]

In Romanian, it's called " turta dulce". 😍😍😋thank you for remind me my childhood cookies🤗❤

Can you please tell me where can I find the writing recipe.thank you

[@sangeetaprasad5387]

Anna - I love your recipes! I haven't tried this one yet, but have been making several others including your choc chip cookies. I have a question about them. They came out perfectly the first time I made them, but the next few times they have not been spreading and flattening when I bake them. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

[@omarfahad5051]

Hello, is it possible to get the puff pastry cream cones recipe?

Why do I keep coming back? Because your recipes just work. I've made a few of them already.

Are these the same type of cookies walmart has in their "assorted holiday cookies" box?

[@richam5690]

can you please share an eggless cookie or cake or cupcake recipe..plssssss as even i want to try ur recipe 😄💛

[@Alexandra-jj2qh]

Have a slightly different recipe, but this one sounds good as well. I dislike powdered sugar (way too messy) so glaze them instead.

[@seram8]

Can I prepare the dough and enter to the freeze for bake on xmas?

[@Blaciu]

For sure! Traditionally, the dough is actually supposed to sit for a few days or even weeks. This helps mature the flavour of the spices. Just keep it covered in the fridge (not the freezer) and save adding the egg until you are ready to bake it

[@supernatitube]

Love it!! 💞 Thank you Ana. 🌷🌷🌷Would you also post the recipes for Lebkuchen and Zimtsterne (German Cinnamon Star Cookies)?

No, Lebkuchen is a different kind of dough. For starters. Lebkuchen dough needs to sit a while...

Hey Anna, I'm not a huge fan of overly sweet desserts so can I reduce the sugar in all your dessert recipes? Would the baked goods still be good?

[@raeraechie]

Yes yes yes. My great grandmother's recipe doesn't contain ANY sugar. 1 cup honey 1 egg lightly beaten 3 tbsp shortening 3 cups sifted flour 3/4 tsp each: Allspice Mace Cardamom Baking soda Baking powder Salt 1/4 tsp black pepper 1/8 tsp anise Warm the honey and shortening together in a sauce pan Pour egg and honey mixture into the dry ingredients Mix with a spoon Rest the dough 10 mins Roll into 1 inch balls Bake at 325 for 13 mins Rest cookies overnight Toss with powdered sugar in the morning
