Basya Tsybukmakher
Preparation
Recipe from the video How to Prepare for Shabbat in 2 Hours
This simple cake is the base for all my super-quick cakes; only the fillings and additions change. The quantities in this recipe are enough for 2 "English cake" loaf pans. Don't be afraid to experiment and change the ingredients!
Beat the eggs with the sugar, then add the vegetable oil, juice (wine), and flour, continuing to beat. (If you don't like the taste of sweet wine, you can replace it with water, orange juice, etc.).
Add the nuts, raisins (optional), and diced apples—or finely grated carrots—to the batter.
Pour the batter into 2 rectangular loaf pans ("English cake").
Bake for 30-40 minutes at 190 degrees.
Shabbat shalom, and enjoy your meal!
