- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground clove
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 cup raisins
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and flour a 13×9-inch baking pan, ensuring your cake won’t stick.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the sugar, shortening, and egg until smooth and creamy, creating a luscious base for your cake.
-
Gradually add the maple syrup, infusing your batter with its rich, distinctive flavor. Mix well to incorporate.
-
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg, ensuring even distribution of leavening agents and spices.
-
Alternately add the dry ingredients and sour milk to the creamed mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir gently after each addition to maintain a consistent texture.
-
Fold in the vanilla extract, adding a fragrant touch that complements the sweetness of the maple syrup.
-
Finally, gently fold in the plump, juicy raisins, distributing them evenly throughout the batter to ensure every bite is bursting with fruity goodness.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to achieve a uniform thickness.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating your cake is perfectly baked and ready to enjoy.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely, enhancing its texture and flavor.
-
Once cooled, slice into generous portions and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar, elevating this classic dessert to new heights of indulgence!
-
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature, ensuring your Prince of Wales Cake stays moist and delicious for days to come.
