For a lazy autumn brunch, there are Gingerbread Pancakes with Golden Pear Compote and Maple Cream.
Illustrated with ravishing full-color photographs, Great Gingerbread is brimming with classic recipes, both old and new. Inside you'll discover there's a gingerbread for every taste, and a gingerbread treat to brighten any day of the year."
