Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 ¼ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¾ teaspoons baking soda
- ¼ teaspoons salt
- ½ cups brown sugar packed
- ½ cups buttermilk
- ½ cups dark molasses
- ⅓ cups butter melted (unsalted butter is better for taste and flavor)
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- powdered sugar optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Either spray your 8-inch square pan with some nonstick cooking spray, or you can use tin foil, parchment paper or waxed paper to line the pan. In a bowl, whisk together flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, buttermilk, molasses, melted butter and egg. Stir the flour mixture into the sugar/molasses mixture. Pour batter into your prepared pan.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 25-30 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack.
- If you'd like, you can sprinkle the finished gingerbread with some powdered sugar for appearance. Slice and serve. Delicious hot or cold! Serve with some vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
