- 1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh gingerroot
directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Butter a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan, line the bottom and sides with parchment, and grease the parchment; alternatively, butter and flour a 6-cup Bundt pan.
- In a large saucepan over high heat, combine the stout and molasses and bring to a boil.
- Turn off the heat and add the baking soda.
- Allow to sit until the foam dissipates.
- Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk together the eggs and both sugars; whisk in the oil.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, the ground ginger, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and cardamom.
- Combine the stout mixture with the egg mixture, then whisk the liquid into the flour mixture, half at a time.
- Add the fresh ginger and stir to combine.
- Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 1-hour, or until the top springs back when gently pressed; do not open the oven until the gingerbread is almost done or the center will fall slightly.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
