Old Fashioned Gingerbread

This tastes awesome, and your house will smell so good while it's baking!

Ingredients:

1 Egg
½ cup Sugar
½ cup Dark Molasses
5 Tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted
⅔ cups Whole Milk
1-½ cup All-purpose Flour (I actually substituted 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour for a little fiber and texture)
1 tsp Baking Soda
½ tsp Salt
¼ tsp Nutmeg
¼ tsp Cloves
2 tsp Ginger
2 tsp Cinnamon


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a loaf pan with butter. (you can make this in an 8″ square pan too, just reduce the baking time a bit)
Mix together the egg, sugar, molasses, butter and milk. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, salt and spices. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until everything is well combined.
Pour the batter into the pan, and bake for about 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the bread cool, and then slice and enjoy!
