You have leftover gingerbread, which may have become dry because of all the Christmas treats? That's perfect, then you can refine them in this gratin to a small delicacy. Of course, you can also prepare the gratin with fresh gingerbread! The quickly prepared gratin tastes great as a winter dessert or in an afternoon coffee round. If there are only adults at the table, you can sprinkle apples and gingerbread with a little Calvados before baking.
