CRAZY GINGERBREAD (WITH LEMON SAUCE)



Crazy Gingerbread (With Lemon Sauce) image

This is one of my mom's old favorites, and I've made it many times too. It's similar to "Crazy Cake" which is chocolate but follows the same procedure. These recipes were popular in the 70's (in my neighborhood, anyway!). (I'm posting the Lemon Sauce recipe separately to keep those ingredients separate from the cake ingredients.)

Provided by TapestryThreads

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Yield 1 cake, 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups flour, plus
3 tablespoons flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ginger
1 tablespoon vinegar
6 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup molasses
3/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375º.
  • In an ungreased 8x8 inch pan, stir together all dry ingredients.
  • With a spoon, make three "wells" in the dry ingredients. In one "well" put the vinegar, in another the oil, and in the third the vanilla.
  • Mix the water and molasses in a separate bowl. Pour over the dry ingredients and mix quickly with a fork. Mix until lumps are gone, but do not beat.
  • Bake at 375º for about 30 minutes.
  • Cut and serve from baking pan, with lemon sauce, applesauce, or whipped cream.
  • See my recipe for "Lemon Sauce" at this site. The contrasting lemon flavor and moistness added by the sauce is what adds the finishing touch to this cake, making it suitable for a company dessert!

MOM'S GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE



Mom's Gingerbread With Lemon Sauce image

This is a nice spicy dark gingerbread cake that's kind of dense, but tender. It makes a full, tall cake in an 8" or 9" pan; if you want thinner cake, use a 9" X 13" pan and bake it for less time. I usually serve it right out of my Corningware baking pan, but if you wish to turn it out onto a serving plate, line the bottom of the pan with parchment. I like to use whole wheat flour, and since it is normally moist and dense, it seems exactly the same as all purpose flour. I also switched out butter for the shortening originally called for.

GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON SAUCE



Gingerbread with Lemon Sauce image

This was my favorite dessert when I was a little girl. I can remember clearly the smell of the gingerbread cooking in the oven--even now the smell bring goose bumps. Having two brothers I had to compete vigorously for my share of seconds. If I lost, my mother would always give me her piece when the the boys weren't looking. I don't have it any longer, but I remember finding this recipe many years later on a little scrap of paper in the pages of my mother's favorite cookbook.

GINGERBREAD WITH WARM LEMON SAUCE



Gingerbread with Warm Lemon Sauce image

The first time I ever ate gingerbread with lemon sauce was in a local restaurant in my town called "The Gingerbread Man". They served the lemon sauce warmed, and it was to die for! I finally found out how it's done. And here it is:

Provided by Robyn Bruce

Categories     Cakes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 c light brown sugar
1 c green label molasses
3 c flour
1 1/2 c cold brewed black coffee
1 heaping teaspoon baking soda dissolved in the black coffee
1/2 c crisco or butter, softened
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare a square baking pan. Spray with cooking spray and flour it just a bit. Mix sugar, Crisco (or butter) and molasses together. In a separate bowl, mix flour and spices together. Then mix all together and blend in the black coffee which has baking soda in it. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan, and bake in oven at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.
  • 2. Lemon Sauce 1 cup sugar 4 tablespoons cornstarch ½ cup lemon juice In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Stir well. Gradually whisk or stir in the lemon juice and add 2-1/2 cups water. Over medium heat, bring to a boil. Reduce heat when boiling, and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thickened and clear..... about 2-3 minutes or so. Remove from heat, and serve warm (best) or cold, if you prefer, over the gingerbread. (If you desire, you can grate about 1 teaspoon of lemon rind and stir into sauce for a little extra zing!)

FRESH GINGERBREAD WITH LEMON ICING



Fresh Gingerbread with Lemon Icing image

Provided by Nigella Lawson

Categories     Ginger     Dessert     Bake     Lemon     Fall     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 20 squares

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the gingerbread:
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons brown sugar
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons fresh ginger, finely grated
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
2 large eggs, beaten to mix
1 teaspoon baking soda, dissolved in 2 tablespoons warm water
2 cups all-purpose flour
roasting pan, approximately 12 x 8 x 2 inches, greased and lined with foil or parchment paper
For the icing:
1 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 tablespoon warm water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • In a saucepan, melt the butter along with the sugar, syrup, molasses, ginger, and cinnamon. Off the heat, add the milk, eggs, and baking soda in its water.
  • Measure the flour out into a bowl and pour in the liquid ingredients, beating until very well mixed (it will be a very liquid batter). Pour it into the pan and bake for 3/4 - 1 hour until risen and firm. Be careful not to overcook it, as it is nicer a little stickier, and anyway it will carry on cooking as it cools.
  • And when it is cool, get on with the icing. Whisk the lemon juice into the confectioners' sugar first, then gradually add the water. You want a good, thick icing, so go cautiously and be prepared not to add all the water. Spread over the cooled gingerbread with a palette knife, and leave to set before cutting.
