Tips:

  • Soften butter at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before you start baking. This will make it easier to cream together with the sugar and eggs.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, making the loaf light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients gradually, alternating with the buttermilk. This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too dry or lumpy.
  • Fold in the grated gingerbread. Do not overmix.
  • Bake the loaf at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Serve the loaf warm or at room temperature. It can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
