Description

Very moist and oh so delicious!

Note: this recipe may require more flour then what is called for. I’ve played around with the amounts but never wrote down what I used so use best judgment.

This recipe works best in a nine inch pan. An 8 inch pan may be too small and the resulting gingerbread may be too wet.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Tart Apples, Peeled, Cored, Chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • ⅔ cups Butter
  • ¾ cups Packed Brown Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Molasses
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Ginger
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ⅔ cups Milk
  • 1 whole Egg, Lightly Beaten

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 325*F. Grease a nine inch square cake pan and line with parchment.

2. Coat the chopped apples with the lemon juice

3. Melt the butter, sugar, and molasses in a saucepan over low heat, stir until mixed together then let cool.

4. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, and salt into a bowl. Stir in the milk, beaten egg and cooled sugar/butter mixture, followed by the chopped apples.

5. Mix everything together gently then pour into pan and smooth the surface.

6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool and cut into 12 bars

I made this and it was really good, but I left out the apples and it tasted fine. My only problem was that it was kind of crumbly but it wasn’t so crumbly as it cooled. They tasted really good!
