100 Year Old Recipe for Huckleberry Gingerbread

Came across this free download of a 100 year old cookbook on Amazon today (http://amzn.to/11FarKQ) really interesting how simple all the recipes are! About 5 ingredients or less for most of them. Some look incredibly unhealthy (bread fried in bacon fat then smothered in butter), but others look pretty intriguing. 

This one in particular really caught my interest. I've never even conceived of pairing huckleberry and gingerbread flavors together, but it sounds delicious! I'd love to give this a try, and perhaps come up with a vegan recipe for it. 

Now my only question is where to get fresh huckleberry from???! 

Recipe: 

SOFT GINGERBREAD 
1 Cupful of Molasses 
1 Cupful of Sour Milk 
1/2 Cupful of Butter or Lard 
1 Teaspoonful of Ginger 
1 Teaspoonful of Soda 
1/2 Teaspoonful of Salt

Stir the soda into the molasses until it foams, add sour milk, ginger, salt and melted butter. Last of all, add flour enough for quite a stiff batter and bake. This makes one sheet. 


HUCKLEBERRY CAKE 
1) Pick over and wash and flour well one cupful of fresh huckleberries. 
2) Add these to the batter for soft gingerbread. Serve hot, with butter.
