Ingredients

  • 1 box King Arthur Gluten-Free Yellow Cake Mix
  • 1 tablespoon ginger
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon each cloves and nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 6 tablespoons (85 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup (113 grams) molasses
  • 1 tablespoon (14 grams) cider vinegar or white vinegar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup (152 grams) buttermilk or 1/2 cup (113 grams) liquid whey (the liquid drained from yogurt)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9″ x 13″ pan, and flour it with gluten-free flour.

  3. In a separate bowl, beat the butter with half the cake mix/spices.
  4. Beat in the molasses, vinegar, and one of the eggs.

  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  8. Bake the gingerbread for 40 to 45 minutes, until it’s brown and firm on top. Its internal temperature should be between 210 degrees Fahrenheit and 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
  9. Remove the cake from the oven, and cool it on a rack for 15 minutes before slicing.
