Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 ¼ cups water
⅓ cup shortening
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 cups raisins
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Directions
In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, water, shortening, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and raisins. Bring to a boil, then continue boiling for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8×4-inch loaf pan. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together into a bowl.
In a large bowl, combine raisin mixture with flour mixture; pour into the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 55 minutes.
