The least amount of miles would be to redeem 20,000 BA Avios for travel on AB's JFK-TXL nonstop. (Connecting via DUS would cost more Avios, as BA's frequent-flyer scheme charges per flight flown.)

If aa.com is correctly displaying award-seat availability on the AB JFK-TXL nonstop, then that flight should be available for redemption with BA Avios. If you are correctly searching ba.com for award seats, and the AB flight does not show up, then a call to the BAEC Service Center is in order.
