Eggless Ginger Cake



   For my 1940’s camp I am attending, I needed to make an authentic cake to bring. I decided to bake an eggless ginger cake because eggs were in short supply and this was a genuine recipe. First of all I measured out the flour, small amounts of sugar and fat and mixed well. Next I added 1 teaspoon of ground ginger to taste. Then, I mixed bicarbonate of soda and vinegar and poured the frothy result into the cake mix and stirred well. Before baking I poured the mixture into a greased loaf tin and baked for 25 minutes. It didn’t rise that much but it turned out better than I had expected! To serve i wrapped it in brown paper and tied it with string.
