Nothing makes your home feel as warm and inviting as the scent of sweet, spiced gingerbread in the oven, and few quick breads signal comfort quite like this traditional wintertime loaf. Serve this warm or at room temperature, and for a sweeter treat, try frosting the bread with my dairy-free cream cheese frosting.
