Name: Soft Gingerbread
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 teaspoon Baking Soda; 3/4 cups Boiling Water; 1-3/4 cup Unbleached White Flour; 3/4 teaspoons Ground Ginger; 3/4 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg; 1/4 teaspoons Salt; 6 Tablespoons Earth Balance Butter Substitute; 3/4 cups Sugar (I Use Evaporated Cane Juice Or Raw); 3/4 cups Unsulphured Molasses

Servings: persons

1 teaspoon Baking Soda
3/4 cups Boiling Water
1-3/4 cup Unbleached White Flour
3/4 teaspoons Ground Ginger
3/4 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoons Salt
6 Tablespoons Earth Balance Butter Substitute
3/4 cups Sugar (I Use Evaporated Cane Juice Or Raw)
3/4 cups Unsulphured Molasses

1
Preheat your oven to 350 .
2
Dissolve the baking soda into the boiled water and allow it to cool. Mix or sift the flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together.
3
Cream the butter, using a stand mixer or hand beater. Add the sugar, a little at a time, creaming well after each addition. Add molasses slowly and beat well until light and creamy.
4
Add about 1/4th of the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and stir by hand. Add about 1/4 of a cup of the cooled water/soda mixture and stir. Continue adding flour mixture and water mixture (ending with flour) stirring after each addition.
5
Pour batter into a greased and floured pan. Spread the batter to the edges of the pan so it's a little thicker at the edges than in the center. Drop the filled pan a few times, lightly, on the work surface to remove any air pockets.
6
Bake for 40-45 minutes. The cake should be drawn away from the sides of the pan. Decorate with powdered sugar.
