Gingerbread:
1/2 C. molasses
1/2 C. dark corn syrup
1/2 C. packed dark brown sugar
6 T. unsalted butter
3/4 C. orange juice
1/4 C. finely chopped crystallized ginger
2 eggs
1 3/4 C. flour

1 1/2 t. ground ginger
1 t. ground cinnamon
1/2 t. fresh grated nutmeg

Recipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-inch square baking pan and line with parchment or waxed paper.
Combine molasses, corn syrup, brown sugar and butter in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and bubbly. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the orange juice and crystallized ginger, and let cool for 5 minutes. Whisk in the eggs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Make a well in the center, add the molasses mixture, and whisk, or beat on low speed with an electric mixer until smooth. The batter will be foamy and thin. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 30—35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pan and turn out or cut and serve warm.

1/2 C. dark corn syrup
1 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. ground clove
1/4 t. kosher salt
2/3 C. raisins
2 C. diced apples
Combine all ingredients except apples in a medium saucepan, bring to a simmer, stir in apples and cook until apples are soft but retain some crunch. Refrigerate or serve warm.
