Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
⅓ cup dark brown sugar, packed
⅓ cup dark corn syrup
⅓ cup molasses
1 egg
½ cup hot water
¼ cup chopped crystallized ginger
1 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch round or square pan and line bottom with parchment paper.
  • Whisk flour, cinnamon, ground ginger, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.
  • Beat butter and brown sugar together in another large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add corn syrup, molasses, and egg; beat until smooth. Pour in hot water slowly while continuing to beat. Add flour mixture gradually, mixing until batter is well-blended and smooth. Stir in crystallized ginger. Pour batter into the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pan, about 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges and carefully invert onto a wire rack. Cut into wedges or squares.
  • Whip heavy cream and maple syrup together in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Serve whipped cream topping with cake.

This gingerbread is a little too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less ginger.

I'm not a big fan of maple, so I used vanilla extract instead in the whipped cream frosting. It turned out great!
