My dear Grammie was making gingerbread one morning and my brother and I arrived, starving! She altered the recipe slightly, put it on the grill and the result is this delicious recipe. The smell of it cooking always takes me back to that morning--mmmm!
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground dried ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 egg
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups molasses
- 1.5 cups water
Instructions

1
Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, and cinnamon in a bowl; set aside. Beat the egg in a separate mixing bowl with the vanilla and molasses until smooth. Whisk in the water until completely incorporated. Stir the flour mixture into the molasses mixture until just combined -- a few lumps are okay.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.

Oklahoma Brisket
This Oklahoma brisket recipe isn't dried out and is fabulously moist, tender, and delicious. The barbecue sauce is so flavorful and is versatile enough to use for other meat dishes.
California Roll
A California roll is a fresh take on traditional Japanese rice rolls. Filled with avocado, crab, and cucumber, it's fresh and crunchy and makes a filling meal. You can use real or imitation crab.
Hummus from Scratch
This is a great recipe made from dried garbanzo beans and soy beans. I cook my beans in a pressure cooker for an hour in a half water, half stock solution, but the old 'soak the beans overnight and simmer for two hours' method would also work.
