Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F; lightly oil an 8-by-8-inch baking pan or coat with non-stick spray. Line bottom of pan with parchment paper or wax paper. Oil or spray paper.

Step 2

Sift together flour, sugar, cinnamon, ground ginger and salt into a mixing bowl. Add crystallized ginger and stir to coat.

Step 3

In another bowl, stir baking soda into hot coffee and whisk in molasses, egg white and oil. Pour into the dry mixture; stir JUST UNTIL BLENDED. Do not over mix or the cake will be tough.

Step 4

Scrape the batter into the pan and bake 30-40 minutes, or until cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Turn the cake onto a wire rack and cool until lukewarm.

OPTIONAL: Sprinkle the cake with confectioner's sugar or lay a stencil or paper doily on the cake and dust with sugar. Carefully remove the doily or stencil.
