Gluten-free, soft and moist gingerbread loaf with a perfect honey cream cheese frosting on top! Made with molasses, ginger and other fall spices!
I make a lot of baked loaves but this one definitely rocked the fall spices game. This gingerbread loaf is moist and packed with some of my favorite fall spices!
In this loaf, there is ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Coming out the oven, felt like my tastebuds found heaven. Okay, just kidding. You know what I mean! The frosting added on top was the perfect touch to bring all the flavors together.
This was one of the loaves I couldn’t stop raving about! Even when it’s not fall or winter anymore, I would still totally make this loaf!
