Let's start by gathering our ingredients. We'll need:

300 grams plain flour
1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
360mL milk
1.5 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon mixed spice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
60 grams fresh ginger, grated
3 tablespoons treacle
5 tablespoons golden syrup
150 grams butter, softened
1 egg

Once we have our ingredients, we'll start by making the batter. We'll whisk together the flour, baking powder, spices, and grated ginger. Then, we'll add the treacle, golden syrup, butter, and egg and whisk until everything is combined.

The batter needs to sit for two hours before baking, so plan ahead and you can use any type of loaf pan you like, but a 9x5-inch pan will give you a nice tall loaf.

The batter will be quite stiff, but that's okay. We'll pour it into a greased and lined loaf pan and bake it in a preheated oven at 170 degrees Celsius for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once the loaf is baked, we'll let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing it to a wire rack to cool completely.

This gingerbread loaf is perfect for afternoon tea or as a dessert. It's moist, flavorful, and has a hint of spice from the fresh ginger.

I hope you enjoy it!

Perfect and yummy 😋 ginger 🫚 bread loaf 🍞I can’t wait to do it. Can I use molasses, thanks. And Happy New Year🎉

I made this today, and it turned out great. I used a pull chopper to chop both the fresh and crystallized ginger (first the fresh, then the crystallized). I did the stovetop parts in the microwave. The batter was too much for my loaf pan, so I cooked the overflow separately in the microwave (somewhat different color and texture but successful in its own way). Mine took longer than 20-25 minutes in the oven; I think the baking time will be different for everyone depending on the size of the oven and the size and number of loaf pans.

Just making it now. Smells gorgeous. Don’t forget to list 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking soda for milk in your ingredients list. Can’t wait to have first slice.

@vakulaag It is quite possible to make your own golden syrup and treacle. Golden syrup is just sugar and water. Treacle is also just sugar and water, just cooked longer to make a deeper richer syrup. Recipes for both are available on the internet.

I this yesterday, I loaf gone already. Fabulous flavour

[vakulaag]

Fell in love with the recipe. Unfortunately we don’t get treacle and golden syrup in my town

I am not familiar with the 2 types of syrup you are using. can you offer an alternative for use in the u s/ (unsulfphured molasses)? +?
you can never have too much ginger!!

[Valerie-xnkg]

Why do you have to leave batter for two hours? Valerie.

[RenaeeChurches]

baking soda or baking powder? (the video said soda) also the milk is not listed in your ingredient list. I have just put it in the oven - fingers crossed 🙂

[sekereterra]

I almost missed the BROWN SUGAR in the written recipe. Also, the written recipe needs to be edited because there's no baking powder on the list.
