To burn it off
Gingerbread is a biscuit made with ginger, flour, butter, sugar and golden syrup or treacle. One biscuit is 130 kcal, with 21 g of carbs and 4 g of fat.
A big gingerbread man from a bakery is about twice that, 260 kcal. The icing and buttons are only a small part of it.
It is everywhere at Christmas: biscuit tins, Christmas markets, gingerbread houses. A house is a lot of gingerbread, so count by the piece.
Tips
- 1Break the gingerbread man in half and save the legs for later.
