Ingredients:

  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 125 g butter

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 170 degree Celsius.
  2. Grease and line a loaf tin.
  3. Melt butter, water and honey together in a small pot or in microwave.
  4. Sift flours, bicarbonate of soda, gound ginger, nutmeg, salt and mix in brown sugar well.
  5. Mix melted ingredients with dry ingredients either with a mixer, food processor, stab blender or the old fashioned spoon or whisk (it is a thick mixture).
  6. Pour into prepared tin.
  7. Bung in the oven and cook for 45 minutes (test with skewer and if dry o'kay) if not could require up to another 15 minutes.
  8. Don't ask me why but it always takes somewhere between 45 to 60 minutes to cook and never the same twice and I've been cooking it for 25 years.
