In a large nonstick frying pan, melt one stick of butter on medium-high heat. Add ginger root and cook 3-5 minutes until slightly softened. Stir in cinnamon and apples until well coated. Turn off heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt and baking soda. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat together egg and all wet ingredients. Stir in sugar until well adapted (about 10 strokes). Add dry mix and stir until just damp (about 40 strokes). Fold in apples and ginger.
