Ginger Molasses Bundt Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven to 350° (oven rack to second-lowest position).
• Grease and flour a 12-inch Bundt pan (shake out excess flour).
• Sift the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together in a small bowl.
• Add a medium bowl, beat or whisk the molasses, sugar, sour cream, eggs and vanilla until well blended.
• Whisk in 1 cup boiling water and oil, then the dry ingredients; mix well to combine.
• Transfer to prepared pan.
• Bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until cake test done.
• Cool in pan for 20 minutes, then invert to a plate to cool completely.
• Serve slices of cake drizzled with caramel topping and a dollup of whipped cream.
• Delicious!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch round baking pan, line with parchment paper, then grease and flour the pan.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed for 3 to 5 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula. Add the eggs, one at a time, the molasses, and the 2 teaspoons of lemon zest and mix until combined. (The batter may look curdled.)
• Sift together the flour, ginger, baking soda, and salt. With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, scraping down the sides. Mix until smooth. With a rubber spatula, fold in the 1/3 cup of crystallized ginger.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick just comes out clean. Don¿t overbake it! Cool in the pan for 30 minutes, turn out onto a baking rack, and cool completely. Spread the top with whipped cream and sprinkle with crystallized ginger and grated lemon zest.
• Place the cream, confectioners' sugar, granulated sugar, creme fraiche, and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed, until it forms soft peaks. Serve cold.

Steps:

• Place a rack in the middle of the oven and heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch cake pan and line with parchment. Butter the parchment.
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, ginger, baking powder, pepper and cinnamon. Set aside.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together molasses, sugar and melted butter. Add eggs, and whisk well. Stir in raisins and dates.
• Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, fold the dry ingredients into wet ingredients until incorporated and no streaks of flour remain. The batter will be stiff. Spread batter into prepared cake pan, smoothing the top.
• Bake until a testing skewer inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 35 to 40 minutes.
• Run a knife along the edge of the cake, and, once cooled, transfer to a serving platter. Slice into wedges and serve with whipped cream, if desired.
