This is my second attempt to make yeasted gingerbread. I used this recipe and modified it a bit. I increased the cinnamon and ginger to one teaspoon each and added one tablespoon each of finally minced stem ginger and Mandarin zest. I also added about 3/4 of a cup of rum soaked raisins.

It took a long time to proof but it did finally make up into a nice tall loaf.

It's not at all like a traditional gingerbread but it does have a good texture and a great flavor.

That’s a beautiful loaf, @Tropicalsenior!  I would love to try toasting a slice for breakfast!
