The traditional high holiday dessert. This loaf is very moist and delicious. My grandmother got this recipe from a friend many years ago and has been making it ever since. Ingredients:
4 extra large eggs, room temperature |
1 cup sugar |
1 1/2 cups honey |
1/2 cup strong coffee, room temperature |
1 cup oil |
2 cups flour, sifted |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon clove |
1/2 teaspoon ginger |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Beat eggs. Add sugar, honey, coffee, oil. Mix in mixer for 20 minutes (or use a blender, which my grandmother did accidentally once with excellent results, and now she does it all the time that way!).
2. Add dry ingredients (in mixer, not blender) on low speed. Then add vanilla.
3. Line a 13 x 9 x 2 1/2 with ungreased waxed paper.
4. Bake in a preheated 325F oven for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
