Dark Molasses Spice Loaf

4.3 (94 cooks rated this)

Robust molasses, ground ginger and cinnamon make this one-bowl quick bread smell like a holiday kitchen. The crumb is dense, damp and deeply brown, and it slices neatly for afternoon tea or toasting with cream cheese.

Test kitchen note: Wrap the cooled loaf tightly and wait a day before serving; the spices bloom and the crumb becomes even moister overnight.
