Claire’s Classic Ginger Cake

  • 1 hr 30 mins
  • Serves 8
  • Easy

Claire’s classic ginger cake is the most perfect light and moist afternoon treat for the whole family.

Using Goat’s Milk in this recipe boosts the goodness as it’s rich in prebiotics, slightly lower in lactose and bursting with vitamins and minerals (and we thought the great taste was enough of a reason to try!)
