In our home, Christmas is first and foremost a celebration of the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus. It’s a time for gratitude, reflection, and gathering, made all the more special when the house smells like lebkuchen and someone’s asking for “just one more cookie.”

The table fills with rouladen, sides like rotkohl and klösse, and our traditional Christmas Eve supper of potato salad and sausages (because even an Oma deserves a break before the big feast). And then there are the sweets such as vanillekipferl and nussecken, piled high in tins and mysteriously disappearing when no one’s looking.

Add a glass of glühwein and maybe a nap, and you’ve got a Christmas full of flavor, family, and faith ... with just the right amount of frosting. 

These German gingerbread cookies (Lebkuchen) are warmly spiced, slightly chewy, and full of that classic holiday flavor we all love.

With hints of cinnamon, cloves, and honey, they’re perfect for gifting, decorating, or simply enjoying with a cozy cup of coffee.

Give them a try and fill your home with the sweet scent of a German Christmas!

Tschüss,
