Make a Hanukkah gingerbread house with the whole family. This free printable guide from The Kosher Hub takes you from shopping list to finished house in one place.
What’s inside (8 pages):
- A shopping checklist for the dough, royal icing, decorations and tools
- A “Where to Buy” page linking to our gingerbread house post
- A sturdy pareve gingerbread dough recipe (swap in butter for a dairy house)
- Royal icing and step-by-step assembly instructions
- Two full-size printable templates for a standing house, about 7 x 5 inches
- Hanukkah design ideas, including a hanukkiah front, Star of David windows and gelt roof tiles
- Notes pages to jot down your own tweaks
Print on US Letter paper at 100% (not “fit to page”) so the templates come out the right size.
Kosher notes: always check for a reliable kosher symbol on every ingredient, including molasses, spices, meringue powder, sprinkles and candy, and check eggs for blood spots. The Kosher Hub is not a Kosher Authority. For any advice please refer to your local Kashrut Authority.
Understanding Our Kosher Certifications
The Kosher Hub references products certified by recognized kosher authorities, including OU, OK, Star-K, Kof-K, and CRC. Certification symbols and status can change, so always confirm the current kosher status directly on the product packaging or via the certifying agency's own listings before purchasing.
