Bake in a 350 F oven for 50 to 55 minutes for the tube pan or 25 to 30

ginger. Cover and chill several hours before serving.
To serve, dollop each serving wtih the ginger-yogurt topping. Sprinkle

A Message from our Provider:
“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
