Fresh tomato spice cake: a summertime sweet
Cakes
This recipe is great for using up overripe tomatoes. Juicy, tangy and sweet, seasonal tomatoes make it obvious that they’re fruits and not vegetables. Eating one recently, I noticed that it almost tasted like a berry, and I wondered why we make sweet treats from pumpkins and zucchini but hardly ever from tomatoes, at least not that I’ve seen or tasted. Now was the time. <br />The result is a moist, flavorful, casual cake whose main ingredient will go unsuspected by many. Feel free to adjust and augment the spices as you wish, and to add some orange zest, nuts, and/or raisins to the batter -- they make welcome additions! <br />This recipe first appeared on my web site, buttersugarflowers.com
