# 15 - ninja breadmen!!


The ultimate in Christmas ginger breadmen!!


The recipe I nicked from channel 4 food website - principally as it didn't involve treacle as well as golden syrup (which I've discovered comes in squeezy tubes = less mess!)




Couple of top tips - if your egg and golden syrup mixture leaves the dough a bit dry and crumbly add a little water to help it stick (but not too much else you won't be able to roll it).


I used a medium egg and the mixture wasn't quite wet enough - a large egg and a heated spoon so the golden syrup slides off easier would have probably helped too - but water worked fine!


The ninja breadmen cutters I found from Urban Outfitters I think - but you can find them on amazon too:


Hope you have as much fun making them as I did!
