This is an eggless, milkless, butterless cake. " A delicious spiced cake that's easy on the budget". I found this recipe in the "Guideposts" magazine (August 2009 issue). The recipe was part of a wonderful article with the same title written by Rosemary Marbach.

GRANDMA'S POOR MAN'S CAKE
This cake is something my Grandma made during the depression. I always thought it sounded odd, but it is actually pretty good. My Dad said that as kids (he was one of 9) it was one thing that was always a treat.

WACKY CAKE
This was my great-grandma's recipe that she gave to my mom when she was young. I've added chocolate chips to it before but they are optional. (In the picture my sister put frosting on it and "decorated" it with pecans for New Years.)

- Bread and Butter Pickles. Do you realize that some of the items that we commonly eat today were actually birthed during the Great Depression Era? One of those items is bread and butter pickles.
- Great Depression ‘Pecan’ Pie. The first thing you’ll notice about this pie is that the name has pecan in it, but there are no pecans. During this time, most people couldn’t afford the pecans that went in this pie.
- Tomato Cakes. I love this recipe because it doesn’t call for fresh tomatoes. If you can whole tomatoes each year, then you’ll be glad to have a new way to use them.
- Vintage Carrot Cookies. This recipe has a few more ingredients than most Depression Era recipes do. It contains items like butter, honey, eggs, raisins, nuts, and rolled oats.
- Corned Beef Fritters. Corned beef was a staple in a lot of homes during the Great Depression. Because of this, they had to be resourceful and find unique ways to utilize it.
- Egg Drop Soup. This is another recipe shared by the beloved Ms. Clara who was growing up during the Depression. Did you know that one of your favorite Chinese take-out dishes was actually a huge hit during the Depression?
- Grandma’s Great Depression Cake. This cake is one that is very versatile. It is a spice cake that has a bold flavor but requires only a few basic ingredients.
- Hot Water Cornbread. This is probably the most basic cornbread recipe that you can imagine. You just add cornmeal and salt to a bowl. Then pour boiling hot water on top of the mixture.
- Vintage Homemade Noodles. This recipe is super simple to make for noodles. It requires only some egg yolks, egg whites, and flour to make them. But the tutorial is also very thorough to walk you through the process.
