Instructions

Step 1

Lightly grease and line the bread pan with baking parchment, if specified in the manual.

Step 2

* Put the butter in a large saucepan with the sugar, molasses or treacle, golden syrup and stem ginger. Gently heat until the butter has melted, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

* Remove the pan from the heat, stir, then sift over the flour and spices. Stir until mixed together.

Step 4

* Whisk the eggs and milk together. Add to the melted mixture and stir together until smooth.

Step 5

* Pour the mixture into the bread pan. Fit the pan into the breadmaker and set to the bake only programme. Select 1 hour on the timer. Press start.

Step 6

* Check that the cake is cooked by gently pressing the surface with your fingers; it should feel just firm. If necessary, re-set the timer and cook for a few more minutes.

Step 7

* Remove the pan from the machine and leave to stand for 5 minutes, then carefully turn out on to a wire rack and leave to cool.
