Ingredients
- 10 tablespoons butter (1 1/4 sticks butter)
- 1 cup golden syrup (such as Lyle's)
- 1 cup dark brown sugar (plus 2 tablespoons, packed)
- 1 cup Guinness (or another stout)
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 1/4 cups sour cream
- 2 large eggs
How to Make
-
Step 1: Preheat oven to 325F. Line a 9x13 cake pan with aluminium foil and grease it, or grease a foil tray of the same size.
-
Step 2: Put the butter, syrup, dark brown sugar, stout, ginger, cinnamon and ground cloves into a pan and melt gently over a low heat.
-
Step 3: Remove from heat and whisk in the flour and baking soda. Whisk thoroughly until there are no lumps, this may take some time.
-
Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream and eggs. Beat into the gingerbread mixture, whisking again to get a smooth batter.
-
Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for about 45 minutes; when it's ready it will be "gleamingly risen" at the center, and pulling away from the sides of the pan.
-
Step 6: Let the gingerbread cool completely, then cut into slices or squares.
