Servings: 9

Ingredients

All-purpose flour (2 cups)
Ground ginger (1 tablespoon)
Ground cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
Baking powder (2 teaspoons)
Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
Unsalted butter (1/2 cup, melted)
Brown sugar (1 cup, packed)
Molasses (1/2 cup)
Egg (1, beaten)
Milk (1/2 cup)
Fresh blackberries (1 cup, gently washed and dried)
Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, mix the melted unsalted butter, packed brown sugar, molasses, beaten egg, and milk until smooth and creamy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the fresh blackberries, taking care not to break them.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the gingerbread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving, and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
