My great-grandmother used to make a special treat for us, that was a cross between a cake and bread. It was soooo good! This recipes is the closest to hers that I have been able to find. Seems like she put vanilla in hers, but that flavor may have come from the syrup used. She also cooked only on a wood stove!
1 c. sorghum syrup
1 c. sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1 c. butter
3 c. plain flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1 c. butter
3 c. plain flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. soda
1/4 tsp. salt
Melt butter; add sugar and syrup. Heat until
lukewarm. Mix soda and salt with flour. Add to first mixture. Add
well-beaten eggs. Pour into well greased oblong pan and bake at 275
degrees until done.
No Icing Needed. Good just like this!!!
