Ginger cake

I love ginger, and this cake intrigues me as I had never eaten one before.  Here is my attempt at Ginger Cake.

Findings: The ginger taste is not very evident but the cake is nice and moist.

What you need:

Zest of 1 lemon

170g cake flour

4g baking soda

4g ginger powder

2g cinnamon powder

1g clove powder

1g salt

100g brown sugar

160g molasses

107g avocado oil

50g egg

168g boiling water

Method:

Line an 8X4” loaf pan.  Preheat oven to 180℃.

Sift all the dry ingredients and add in the lemon zest.

Combine brown sugar and molasses.  Mix them together until all combined.

Stir in the avocado oil well.

Mix in the egg.

Fold the flour mixture into the wet mixture in 2 additions.  

Pour in the boiling water and mix well.  4 additions stirring well in each.

Pour into the pan and bake for 1 hour.  (cover it if browns too quickly).

Enjoy!
