Anonymous asked: Hi, I LOVE your youtube show, and have a holiday related question. My fiance wants me to make gingerbread cookies, I used to eat them as a kid, but within the last few years I became allergic to cinnamon, even the smell causes it to act up. Is it possible to make gingerbread cookies without cinnamon?

Hey, Anon, why so anon?

Yes, it is totally 1000% possible to make gingerbread cookies without cinnamon. Just add a little extra ginger and/or cloves. Hell, sub a teaspoon or two of hot chocolate mix in for the cinnamon if you’re into chocolate, or a teaspoon or orange or lemon zest for a citrusy note if that’s how you roll. Play around and experiment and make the recipe yours. That’s one of the greatest joys of cooking.
