Zubereitung von Whole Wheat Gingerbread Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar and shortening until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the molasses.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the boiling water – this will create a wonderfully moist cake.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a ginger glaze (optional).
