We have been learning about Remembrance Day in Grade 1. Today we made a recipe from the Veteran's Canada website called War Time Cake. During the war, people back at home didn't always have the cooking supplies they would have liked. Recipes with little or no sugar, eggs and milk were used so there would be more for the soldiers overseas. We would like to thank Mrs. Allen for coming in to bake with us. If you would like to make it at home, the recipe is below.
War Time Cake
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In an 8 inch square pan put:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tspn baking powder
1 cup sugar
1/2 tspn cinnamon
1 tspn baking soda
1/2 tspn salt
3 TBSP cocoa powder
Add to the pan:
1 tspn vanilla extract
1 TBSP white vinegar
5 TBSP vegetable oil

Mix everything with a fork and bake for 30 minutes.
