Ingredients

  • 8 ounces self raising flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
  • 4 tablespoons sultanas
  • 3 tablespoons golden syrup
  • 150 ml tepid water

Method

  • Preheat oven to 180 C or 350°F
  • Line the base of a 1lb loaf tin with greaseproof paper, cut to fit.
  • Sieve flour and ground ginger into a bowl.
  • Stir through bicarbonate of soda and sultanas, then bind ingredients with golden syrup and water - enough to make a fairly soft consistency.
  • Turn the mixture into the tin and level off.
  • Bake the loaf for about 55 minutes, or until risen and firm to the touch.
  • Allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn on to a wire tray to cool completely.
  • Serve sliced with tea.
