I'm not a big fan of gingerbread, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. It wasn't too sweet and the spices were well-balanced.

This recipe was a disaster! The gingerbread was hard and crumbly, and it didn't taste good at all.

The gingerbread was a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some more molasses next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe because it didn't contain any butter, but I was pleasantly surprised. The gingerbread was still moist and flavorful, and it was a lot healthier than traditional gingerbread.
