Ginger Loaf

Makes 1 large loaf Prep Time 6 minutes   Cook Time 50 minutes   Rated:

Gina from The Passionate Pantry has done it again with this one. A wonderful family cake that will last for days and in fact tastes even better as it ages a little. (There’s a joke there, but I’ll stay away from that one!)

Perfect with or without swathes of butter, this moist cake will become a family fave in no time. We know. Enjoy.
