This is a great sweet and tart bread or cake. I came up with this as a way to use up extra green tomatoes. It has since been a hit.
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 cup melted shortening
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup pecans or walnuts
1 cup raisins
2 1/2 cups diced green tomatoes
shredded coconut or crushed ginger snaps
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. In mixing bowl, beat sugar, vegetable oil or shortening, eggs and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg; slowly beat into egg mixture. Blend well. Stir in pecans, raisins and tomatoes.
2. Pour into greased 9x13-inch pan. Top with coconut or crushed ginger snaps. Bake for one hour, or until a wooden pick or cake tester inserted in center comes out clean. .
