For me, gingerbread is high on the list of “comfort” foods. Smother it with home made applesauce and all is right with the world!

Gloria, I made your gingerbread this morning in large muffin and mini Bundt tins. Absolutely delicious!! I substituted 1-to-1 GF flour and used organic cane sugar. Also, to each muffin I mixed in dried cherries, dairy-free chocolate chips, raisins, or pecans. Thank you for another great recipe! I shared it in one of my food groups with the link to this site.
