Ingredients

  • 250 g Butter, unsalted

  • 250 g Sugar, brown

  • 250 g Sugar, brown

  • 375 g Flour, Wheat, bread flour

  • 5 teaspoon Spices, ginger, ground

  • 2 piece Egg, fresh

  • 300 ml Milk, partially skimmed

  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder

  • 3 teaspoons Spices, cinnamon, ground

  • 5 spoon Powdered sugar

  • 1 spoon Butter, unsalted

Steps

  1. Grease the sides of a deep baking dish with butter and line the bottom with baking paper. Place a larger saucepan on the stove, in which you add cubed butter, muscovado sugar, and molasses. Heat the ingredients while constantly stirring until a smooth mixture forms. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

  2. Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius. Sift the flour and spice mixture into the sugar mixture. Mix all the ingredients well, then add the eggs and ground ginger. Place a new saucepan on the stove and heat the milk, to which you add baking soda. Pour the warmed milk into the batter and mix everything well until a smooth mixture forms.

  3. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Place the dish in the preheated oven for about one hour, until the batter becomes firm to the touch.

  4. Once the gingerbread is baked, let it cool in the dish for a few minutes, then turn it out onto a rack and remove the parchment paper. Dust the gingerbread with powdered sugar, then cut it into equal slices, serve on a plate, and enjoy.

Advice

Gingerbread biscuits will develop a fuller aroma if they are allowed to sit for a while, so they should be prepared at least 3 days in advance. Wrap the biscuits in food foil and store them in an airtight cookie or baking box.
