GINGERBREAD LOAF RECIPE
This moist and flavorful gingerbread loaf is not only easy to make but is the perfect companion to a chilly winter day.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Flour
- ½ cup Unsalted Melted Butter
- ½ tbsp Cinnamon
- ½-¾ cup Brown Sugar
- 2 tsp Pure Vanilla
- ½ tsp Salt
- 2 Large Room Temp Eggs
- ½ tsp Baking Soda
- 2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 ½ tbsp Ginger Powder
- ½ tbsp Mixed Spice
- 1 tsp Oil
- ⅓ cup Molasses
- 1 cup Room Temp Milk
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, molasses, brown sugar, eggs, oil, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, mixed spice, and salt.
- Combine The Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
- Bake the Loaf: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Tap the pan to remove any large air bubbles. Bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
