Cinnamon Stars
The cinnamon star is found in Switzerland, Austria and Germany. It is another typical Christmas biscuit. Cinnamon stars are sweet almond biscuits with a distinct cinnamon flavour. They are usually coated with a white egg-white sugar icing. Cinnamon stars are said to have existed as early as the 16th century, but as cinnamon was precious, the biscuits were found among the aristocracy. Recipes were not published until the 18th century.

vegan “Magenbrot”
Unfortunately, “Magenbrot” is not usually vegan. Although it would be really simple to veganize. I had already tried to make “Magenbrot” myself years ago, when I was not yet vegan, but it didn’t work. I got the base for this recipe from vegallen, a recipe that works. This year, however, I have made it not only gluten-free but sugar-reduced as well. Furthermore, I have made some other changes. Have fun trying it out! Magenbrot is a small, sweet glazedbiscuit that shares many similarities with a gingerbread cookie. The name of the dish directly translates to “stomach-bread” as it is believed to help improve digestion. Wikipedia
