Yorkshire Parkin image

Remember, remember the fifth of November Gunpowder, treason and plot. I cannot think of a reason why gunpowder, treason Should ever be forgot. Parkin is a ginger bread type food that is traditionally eaten on bonfire (Guy Fawkes) night in Yorkshire. It's good at any other time during autumn or winter as well though!

This Parkin was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall it was a good recipe. I think next time I'll use a little less sugar.
