Kruidnootjes - Dutch spiced mini cookies 🎁👟🥕
.
Kruidnootjes are a traditional festive treat in the Netherlands. They are spiced mini cookies which are handed out and with which shoes are filled to celebrate the Sinterklaas festivities on the 5th of December.
.
Every August when the Kruidnootjes are already in store we feel offended that it's waaaay to early. After which we run to the store to get some. 🤣
Because they are just so tasty!
.
But homemade they are even more delicious! The signature taste of the Kruidnootjes comes from the Dutch Speculaas spices and dark brown sugar (Bruine basterdsuiker).
.
The recipe is now up on the blog. Check it out via link in bio or visit

Have you been nice this year? Did you get a nice treat in your shoe? Or do you think you have to make it yourself this year? 😉

Dutch Speculaas tart with Almond Filling 🥧
.
🇳🇱 Gevulde speculaas boterkoek met verse amandelspijs. 🥧
.
This Dutch Speculaas tart with Almond filling is a hybrid between the Dutch Boterkoek and the filled Speculaas (Dutch spiced cookies with a layer of almond paste).
.
It’s a rich buttery dough with Speculaas spices. Every baker used to make their own spice mix and is similar to Gingerbread slices but not the same! Speculaas spices are a mix of cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg, ginger, coriander, star anise, allspice, and mace.
.
A perfect treat to celebrate the Sinterklaas season.🎁 But I could eat this all winter really. 😎
.
The recipe is now up on the blog. Check it out via link in bio or visit https://www.talesofpastry.com/sweet-recipes/dutch-speculaas-tart-with-almond-filling/

What is your favorite winter treat?
