Let's Bake a 1940's Sally Lunn

In today’s video Jill shows you how to bake a 1940’s Sally Lunn. The recipe comes from the Women’s Home Companion Cookbook. This is a very easy recipe. If you’re a new baker, or a seasoned baker looking for a new and interesting recipe, this one you'll really like. It’s a super light, flavorful cake with a crumbly, crunchy, buttery topping. Serve hot and enjoy! SALLY LUNN, JULY, 2023 CAKE INGREDIENTS 2 CUPS FLOUR 3 TEASPOONS BAKING POWDER ¾ TEASPOON SALT 1/3 SHORTENING (I USED AVOCADO OIL) 1/3 CUP GRANULATED SUGAR 1 EGG 2/3 CUP MILK TOPPING ½ CUP BROWN SUGAR 1 TEASPOON CINNAMON 1 TABLESPOON MELTED BUTTER COMBINE BROWN SUGAR AND CINNAMON. BLEND WITH BUTTER. SET ASIDE PREHEAT OVEN TO 400 DEGREES F. GREASE AN 8” X 8” SQUARE PAN, OR ONE OF A SIMILAR SIZE (A ROUND CAKE PAN WOULD WORK) MIX FLOUR, BAKING POWDER, AND SALT TOGETHER. SET ASIDE. COMBINE OIL AND SUGAR. BEAT TOGETHER WELL WITH A HAND MIXER, OR BY HAND WITH A SPOON. ADD EGG AND MIX WELL. ADD THE MILK. MIX AGAIN UNTIL ALL INGREDIENTS ARE WELL COMBINED. ADD THE FLOUR MIXTURE AND STIR JUST ENOUGH TO MOISTEN THE DRY INGREDIENTS. DO NOT BEAT. TURN INTO THE GREASED PAN. SPRINKLE THE BROWN SUGAR TOPPING OVER THE BATTER. BAKE FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES UNTIL DONE. HOW DO YOU TELL IF A CAKE IS DONE? DO THE TOOTHPICK TEST. CUT INTO SQUARES, SERVE HOT. TOOTHPICK TEST: USE A TOOTHPICK AND POKE IT INTO THE CENTER OF THE BAKED CAKE. IF THE TOOTHPICK COMES OUT FREE OF BATTER, THE CAKE IS DONE AND CAN BE REMOVED FROM OVEN. IF THE TOOTHPICK COMES OUT WITH WET BATTER ON IT, PLACE THE CAKE BACK IN OVEN AND BAKE FOR ANOTHER 2-3 MINUTES OR UNTIL THE TOOTHPICK COMES OUT OF THE CAKE CLEAN. 🛒 PLEASE VISIT MY AMAZON INFLUENCER SHOP: Be sure to check out my Amazon Affiliate Shop!
