It amazes me how some food smells bring back memories. Whenever I smell someone baking gingerbread cake now it reminds me of walking home from school and entering the house to the smell of gingerbread cake my mother was baking. Oh it takes me back. Happy memories!
This recipe makes two cakes so refrigerate the second one (up to a month) or share it with family and friends. It's super easy to make, two pans and a bowl and the most moist, delicious, fragrant gingerbread cake I think you will ever have tasted. Try it. Link to the treacle and golden syrup below (but as say in the video, you don't have to use these)

Gingerbread Cake
Makes two 8” round ginger cakes
1 lb flour
8 oz butter
4 tsp ginger

3 eggs
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Add the flour, ginger, cinnamon, pumpkin spice seasoning, baking soda to a bowl and rub in the butter to fine crumbs.
Whisk the sugar into the milk and bring to a boil in a heavy based pan and at the same time bring the syrup and treacle to a boil in a sperate pan.
Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mix followed by the syrup mix. Add the eggs. Pour immediately into the cake tin and bake for about 20 - 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow to cool slightly before slicing.

Growing up in the UK, with my Grandfather being a baker, ginger cake was a regular treat. Sometimes the oven was left too hot and the top would be a little scorched, but custard soon covered that. I inherited his baking abilities (taught at his side, standing on a chair, wrapped in a big, white apron) and many years later made a couple ginger cakes for my parents. We knew that leaving them for a week was beneficial, so the fact that they took that long to arrive in the UK by mail, from New Zealand, didn't matter. What mattered was that at that Christmas, everyone who wanted, had a piece of cake that I'd made especially for them!

I've never tasted gingerbread cake before, but I did enjoyed gingerbread and ginger flavoured cookies. I actually can imagine how the sweetness and spiciness of the cake enhanced by the saltiness and creaminess of butter just melt away in your mouth with a glass of warm milk. Divine!

Dear Mr. Grady, I lost my mother a few years ago, and I can still remember the flavors of what she made, and she made the best gingerbread for us, and I loved it when it came out of the oven all nice smells. Such rich the flavor…. The smell-of spice and the smells cinnamon and molasses just added more to the days . Youtake care of yourself, sir, and be healthy, and be blessed

Kia ora Darren from NZ. This is very similar to my Nana's Ginger loaf recipe which I still bake regularly. Only difference is my recipe would be equal to half yours - ingredient wise. Also I bake mine in a loaf tin - which makes for easier slicing. But you are right - the smell of ginger 'cake'/loaf in the kitchen - is to die for. I always like to have a cake or loaf in my tins, and was going to do a Madiera cake today - you've changed my mind lol. Ginger loaf it will be.

Why do people make comments about salted butter always bought ours salted from childhood to now, actually didn't even know about unsalted butter until a few years ago! Asked hubby because his family had a food shop and he said there were customers who asked for unsalted! I always thought butter was salted from when they first started making butter to preserve it! Anyway i tried unsalted didn't like the taste at all, i guess it's what you're used too!
