Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch square baking pan. Set it aside.

  2. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground ginger, cinnamon, and cloves. Set this dry mixture aside.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  4. Add the molasses to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.

  5. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.

  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.

  7. Gently fold in the grated fresh ginger until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

  9. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  10. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  11. Slice and serve this Guardian Fresh Ginger Cake with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for a truly indulgent treat.
