Thank you again! This is my new favorite breakfast cake recipe. I had some rum soaked raisins left over from a fruitcake that never got made, so I threw those in. It worked. Lemon zest butter is nice on top, but I usually just have a slice with a little bowl of Greek yogurt.

michelle, i'll bet the glaze was delicious!

I had to make this as soon as I read the recipe. I did make one change, that was to add a little lemon powdered sugar glaze to the top once it cooled. My husband is suspicious of anything "healthy".

That bread looks so good. I would live a thick slice with some Irish butter and a hot cup of tea. Mmmm.

Good news on the job front, Bijoux! I hope you & your husband like this bread...and I think a good scoop of ice cream or whipped cream would be great!!

I love gingery baked goods, Veggiegirl!

Indeed, Dawn.

Hanne, it is...and it's definitely nice to have a not too sweet treat around!

So true, Aimee! The flavours really developed here.

I find that a lot of sweet breads like gingerbread and banana bred are much improved the day after baking.
Lovely recipe!

This sounds like a perfect breakfast! Molasses and ginger are a great combination, and it's nice to have baked goods that are healthy (to offset all of the sweets I find myself making...).

Well, good news! I start my new job tonight. It's a part-time gig but it will allow me the opportunity to wet my appetite for design and home renos :)
Okay, back to food. I HAVE to make this for my husband. He will LOVE it. "Healthy" is his middle name. And I'm sure that I will too, even though there is no whipped cream on top. I just love a bold kick of ginger in my food. I have a jar of pickled ginger in my fridge that I will occasionally snack on when the mood hits. Ha!
