Eggless, Milkless, Butterless Cake
Description
This rustic eggless, milkless, and butterless cake is a comforting classic that relies on simple pantry staples to create a moist, flavorful treat. By simmering brown sugar, water, and raisins, you create a rich, caramel-like syrup that infuses every bite with deep sweetness. The addition of warm spices like ginger and cinnamon provides a cozy aroma that fills your kitchen while it bakes. This dense, tender crumb is perfect for serving warm with a cup of tea or coffee. It is an excellent choice for those with dietary restrictions or simply for a wholesome, old-fashioned dessert that feels like a hug in a slice.Ingredients
Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) and lightly grease a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, water, raisins, drippings (or oil), and salt.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
-
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
-
While the syrup cools, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ginger, and cinnamon into a large bowl.
-
Pour the cooled raisin mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined and no dry flour remains.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
-
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
