Double ingredients for 9x13" cake or double layer round cake

Oven 350

INGREDIENTS

1 and ½ cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2-3 teaspoons of pumpkin spice
2-3 teaspoons of ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350.

Grease baking pan or use my favorite non-stick pans made in the USA.

Put all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, in no certain order.

Combine ingredients on low speed. 

Then mix on low-medium speed for 2 minutes.

Pour smooth batter into baking pan.

Bake on 350 approximately 30 minutes in oven until done, when cake springs back to the touch or a toothpick comes out clean. Time varies depending on the pan you use.

Let cool before frosting.

  2. Those look delish, Jamie! Now they just need to be made gluten free. 😉 I've "converted" similar recipes before, so it should be quite easy to do. After Thanksgiving of course.
