Baking Brownie Kipferl – the Ingredients
To bake the Brownie Kipferl, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- 50g dark chocolate
- 125g spelt flour
- 75g ground almonds
- 70g sugar
- 1 packet vanilla sugar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1.5 tsp cinnamon

Once you have all the ingredients, you can start baking. You’ll only need a mixing bowl, a knife, some plastic wrap, and a mixer as utensils.

Simple Recipe for Brownie Kipferl
Here’s how it goes: Knead all the ingredients together, form a roll from the dough, and briefly place it in the refrigerator. Then, cut pieces with a knife and shape them into Kipferl by hand. Place them in the oven (12 minutes, 200 degrees Celsius top and bottom heat). Finally, sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar—and the Brownie Kipferl are ready!
