Monday Mood Cake - Spicy Raisin Cake.
A little Christmassy aromas - but I do miss Christmas. And when it is cold and frosty outside, warm spices are a good way to create warmth. Comfort eating? Yes, that, too!
Spicy Raisin Cake
100 g raisins
150 ml buttermilk
3 eggs
150 ml granulated sugar
150 ml (dark) syrup
150 g butter, melted
450 ml plain flour
1,5 tsp bread soda
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground ginger
1. Soak raisins in buttermilk for an hour.
2. Preheat the oven to 175C / 350F and grease and flour a 2-litre bundt cake pan.
3. Beat eggs and sugar until white and fluffy.
4. Fold in flour, spices and bread soda together with melted butter, syrup and the raisins with the buttermilk.
5. Pour into pan and bake in the oven for about 45 minutes.
6. Let cool a little before removing from pan.
7. Enjoy with a warm cuppa wearing your warmest woollen socks and maybe a hat, too?
