Ingredients

500 g honey
125 ml oil
250 g sugar
700 g flour
1 packet baking powder
250 g ground almonds
1 tbsp cinnamon
0.25 tsp cloves powder
0.25 tsp allspice
1 pinch salt
3 eggs
100 g lemon zest (very finely chopped)
100 g orange zest (very finely chopped)
3 tbsp whipping cream
100 g peeled almond kernels
20 cherries halved

Instructions

1.
Boil oil, honey and sugar while stirring, then let cool. Mix flour, baking powder, ground almonds, spices, eggs, lemon zest and orange zest. Stir in honey (if dough is too soft, add a bit more flour). Cover and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
2.
Preheat the oven to 180°C fan.
3.
Press the dough onto a greased baking sheet, smooth it out and spread cream over it. Use a sharp knife to score triangles without cutting through the dough, then decorate with almonds, cherries and lemon zest pieces as desired. Bake the almond gingerbread on the middle rack in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes until light brown, remove, let cool slightly, lift from the sheet and cut into the marked triangles.
