St Nicholas Spekulaas

I’ve been using this for baking pears and baking apples in the oven and they taste amazing. The biscuits will get made eventually but I’m loving that this blend can be used for so much more.

Love this and buy it all the time. Wherever it says add cinnamon add this. Biscuits, pies , crumbles milkshakes every thing tastes better with spekulaas!!!

Not only do I use this wonderful spice in all my baking now, evoking the smells and tastes of childhood, I also have started to use it in my tea! Just a half teaspoon into the mug with the teabag, milk and sugar and you have an instant spiced and warming drink with a dreamy aroma.

I had never baked these Dutch windmill biscuits until I bought this spice and I have since ordered another 3 bottles of this gem of a spice. I followed the recipe on the Gewurzhaus website and now I have a lot of family and work colleagues who are addicted to these biscuits. They taste like Christmas, and who doesn't want to taste Christmas every day? I bake these every second weekend to keep everyone happy.

Love this spice mix! Best use so far was in my homemade toasted muesli. Soooo good!!
