No Eggs Tomato Soup Cake

 

With the cost of eggs on the rise, when my sister Candy came across a No Eggs Tomato Soup Cake recipe in our mother’s recipe box she thought it would be timely and helpful. It is one that Mom wrote out on an index card – we both always enjoy seeing the recipes written in Mom’s penmanship. My sister recently tried the recipe herself for the first time. It came out great.

 

The end result was so good that Candy said she will definitely bake this cake again – perhaps next time using a can of low sodium tomato soup. The recipe calls for a whole cup of raisins so the cake is nicely filled with them.

 

 

Mom didn’t include how long to leave the cake in the oven. In that Candy used a loaf pan she decided to bake it for one hour.

Tastes as good as it looks!
