Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cloves
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Dark brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons Fresh ginger, grated
• 3 units Large eggs
• 0.5 cups Unsulfured molasses
• 1 cup Whole milk, at room temperature
• 0.25 cups Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 10-cup Bundt pan thoroughly, ensuring all crevices are lightly coated with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground ginger, cinnamon, and cloves, and set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and dark brown sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the grated fresh ginger to the creamed mixture and beat until well incorporated.

Step 5

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure the batter remains smooth.

Step 6

Beat in the molasses, scraping down the sides of the bowl to fully incorporate it into the mixture.

Step 7

Reduce mixer speed to low and alternately add the dry flour mixture in three additions and the milk in two additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Be careful not to overmix; stop as soon as the batter is smooth.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 10

Remove the pan from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Once the cake is fully cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for a simple and elegant finish.

Step 12

Slice and serve. This Spicy Ginger Bundt Cake pairs wonderfully with a dollop of whipped cream or a cup of hot tea!
