Guinness Gingerbread

Stout Gingerbread
From Megan Garrelts of Bluestem

1 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. brown sugar (packed)
1/2 c. dark molasses
1/2 c. vegetable oil
1/4 c. Guinness
1/4 c. grated fresh ginger

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the mixer's whisk attachment, beat in brown sugar and molasses until combined. Add vegetable oil and mix again, until combined.

Add the Guinness and ginger and beat until batter is smooth. Pour into prepared pan and bat for 18-20 minutes. Cook completely before serving.

NOTES: We haven't tried this recipe yet. Megan recommends serving the gingerbread with chocolate ice cream and butterscotch sauce.
