Delish! I, too, was skeptical about the amount of crystallized ginger, but if you follow the recommendation for 1-2 cups, you'll be rewarded with moist, chewy ginger bits throughout.

I've made this recipe as shown, and also variants using leftover winter squash, as well as using diced, dried mango and walnuts instead of the ginger. You can also substitute 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey for the sugar (added to the liquid ingredients) and bump up the flour by a few tablespoons.
