    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    i added some mixed spice for a bit more bite. dough was quite crumbly even after mixing longer. i think all its needs is an egg to bind it all together, which i will try next time as the ratio if everything else seemed perfect

    Perfect recipe, worked amazing for our very first gingerbread house. Ginger bread had just the right amount of flavour not overpowering and the kids loved it. Will do next Christmas guaranteed !!! Thanks Natalie.Goff tmrc_emoticons.)

    Extremely crumbly, no way to roll out to make slabs for the house, not enough dough by far. I managed to squish dough together to make cookies. 40g ginger seems excessive. I used 25g and the bite was perfect for my kids.
