Description
A fantastic, dense ginger loaf.
Method

1
Put sugar, milk, golden syrup, butter, baking soda into a pot and bring to the boil.
This mixture will foam when it boils (it's meant to)
Quickly stir in other ingredients and tip the mixture into a loaf tin.
Bake in a loaf tin in a moderate oven 1hr or thereabouts.
Let it cool and eat...
Tips: when using golden syrup heat the measuring cup so it pours out easily
If you like it with a kick add more ginger
This loaf stores well
Baking soda is the leavening agent. so plain flour is fine
thank you, sorry to be a pain but as you've not used baking powder is the flour self raising?
Good point. 1 Cup. I've amended the recipe.
how much milk?
