Ingredients

• Flour - 3 cups
• Sugar - 1.5 cups
• Yogurt or sour cream - 3/4 cup
• Egg - 1 pc.
• Soda - 1/2 tsp
• Cocoa - 3 tbsp. spoons
• Ground nutmeg - 1/2 tsp
• Ground cinnamon - 1 tsp
• Ground ginger (optional) - to taste
• Ground coriander (optional) - to taste
• Vegetable oil - for greasing the baking sheet

Directions

1. Grind the egg well with sugar.
2. Add cocoa and spices
3. (The amount and composition of spices is at your discretion. :))
4. Add sour cream or yogurt (I have low-fat yogurt), mix with a whisk for about five minutes (or with a mixer).
5. Add flour and soda, knead the dough (it is more convenient to do this first with a whisk and then with a spoon).
6. The dough turns out to be viscous, sticks a little to your hands.
7. After moistening our hands with cold water, we form the gingerbread cookies, put them on a baking sheet greased with vegetable oil and covered with baking paper.
8. We send the gingerbread cookies to a well-heated oven for 15 minutes (I had a temperature of 240 degrees, but the ovens are different, so after 10 minutes we start looking at the gingerbread cookies so as not to burn).
9. Ready-made gingerbreads can be poured with sugar icing, but I did without it - this did not make the gingerbread worse. :)
10. Enjoy your tea!
