         Title: Yorkshire Parkin (Oatmeal Gingerbread)   
    Categories: Breads, Grains, Fruits   
         Yield: 2 Loaves   
       
     1 1/2 c  (8 oz) medium oatmeal (this   
              - means ground oatmeal, not   
              - rolled oats)   
     1 1/2 c  (8 oz) whole-wheat flour   
         2 ts Baking powder   
         1 ts Ground ginger   
       1/2 ts Salt   
       1/2 c  (4 oz) apple sauce   
     1 1/2 c  (8 oz) brown sugar   
       1/3 c  (5 oz) black treacle (a kind   
              - of molasses)   
       1/3 c  (4 oz) golden syrup; You   
              - could substitute molasses   
              - for both of these, I guess   
         1    Egg white; lightly beaten   
       1/2 c  (4 fl oz) milk   
       
     Parkin is a variety of gingerbread, good warming stuff to   
     eat out of doors in cold weather. When I was a child, it   
     was always a firm favourite for the firework party on   
     Bonfire Night each year. This is adapted from my mother's   
     recipe.   
        
     Prepare 2 1-lb loaf tins, or an 9x9 inch square tin, by   
     spraying with Pam. Set the oven 350ºF/175ºC/gas mark 4.   
        
     In a large bowl, mix together the oatmeal, flour, baking   
     powder, ginger, and salt. In a small bowl or saucepan, mix   
     together the apple sauce, sugar, treacle, syrup, and milk,   
     and warm slightly to dissolve the sugar. Add these to the   
     oatmeal mixture along with the egg white, and mix together   
     to make a soft mixture of a slow-pouring consistency,   
     adding extra milk if necessary. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or   
     until the top springs back when pressed lightly with a   
     finger.   
        
     After it has cooled a bit, but before it gets cold, cut it   
     in 2" squares in the tin. Cool the pieces on a wire rack,   
     and store them in an airtight container.   
        
     It tastes better if stored for 2-3 days before eating.
