What's better than fresh ginger? Well, crystallized ginger, powdered ginger and fresh ginger all together!
Get thee to the store and get all 3 gingers so you can hurry up and make this wonderful cake.
Triple Ginger Pound Cake
3 1/2 cups flour
1 TBSP ground (powdered) ginger
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 cups sugar
1 cup butter
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
1 TBSP vanilla
1 1/4 cups milk
1/2 cup minced crystallized ginger
4 TBSP grated fresh ginger
Cream sugar & butter until fully combined. Add eggs & yolks, one at a time, incorporating each one before adding the next. Add vanilla. Mix in combined dry ingredients alternately with milk. stir until smooth. Lastly, stir in the gingers.
Bake in 2 greased loaf pans for about 1 hour at 350. Cool in pans for about 20 minutes before removing.
As you can see, these cakes did not rise much. I suspect that if I had slightly smaller loaf pans, the cakes would be a bit taller. In any case ... yum!!
