Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
In a separate bowl, mix flour, starch and salt. Add cinnamon if you like. In another bowl, mix honey, syrup, vegetable oil, beat well. Combine both masses, knead the dough, roll it into a thin layer on the work surface. Using a special shape in the shape of bears, cut out figures from the dough.

Step 2

Step 2
It’s better to do this right away on greased parchment. Decorate the eyes and nose for the bears. And put a nut on everyone’s belly. You can also make a small round tail on the “butt” of the bears, but this is not necessary.

Step 3

Using your fingers, carefully wrap the bearʼs paws so that he "holds" the nut.

Step 6

Step 6
