How to Make Pumpkin Ginger Gingerbread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Stir in ½ cup chopped crystallized ginger.
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 large egg white, ¼ cup light olive oil, ½ cup molasses, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, and 1 cup canned pumpkin puree.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool completely in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.
- Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 days to allow flavors to meld before serving. This step enhances the taste and texture significantly!
