Gingerbread Mini-Muffins

Perfect for Holiday Mornings

Gingerbread mini-muffins are an easy treat to prepare for a holiday breakfast.

Each year, my two sisters and I visit Cape May, New Jersey. The charming hotel that we stay in each year makes a variety of wonderful mini muffins. While this is a different type of mini muffin than they make at Hotel Alcott, this web page is dedicated as a tribute to Cape May, New Jersey and my sisters who have made it such a special place for our annual "sisters vacation".

Ingredients

• 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger

In a separate bowl, whisk molasses, sugar, oil, water and egg. Then combine with flour/spice mixture. Use tablespoon to drop batter into muffin pan. (This recipe makes about 18 mini muffins.)
