Hamburg Brown Biscuits for 3rd Advent

The advent dream of my childhood: the original Hamburg Brown Biscuits. In my grandma’s recipe book in grain and lot, today it is more feasible in grams and teaspoons – my favourite pastries for Christmas! The photo is some years old.

My favourite gingerbread spice is „Klingenberger Lebkuchengewürz“ manufactured by „Altes Gewürzamt“ in Klingenberg/Germany. I am definitely fond of their spices. The gingerbread spice is well-balanced and besides Christmas pastries I use it to season meat dishes with it as for example a wild boar goulash or roast beef – delicous!
