I’m looking forward to making this cake I was wondering if it’s okay if I add raisins. Thank you can’t wait for your response.

In reply to Donna Reid. Maple syrup is about as sweet as sugar, so you can use the same amount, but you might want to increase the liquid slightly to account for the moisture.

How much white sugar would I use to replace the maple syrup?

I make it from time to time. The cake is simple but good. It does not last long regardless of its size))

In reply to Neil Anderson. Einkorn flour can generally be substituted 1:1 for all-purpose or whole wheat flour in cookies, cakes, and quick breads, though it requires 15–20% less liquid due to lower absorption.

In reply to Kathleen. Hi Kathleen, you could add diced dried pineapple to the batter, but if using canned pineapple, that would require adjustments to the recipe due to moisture. If I wanted to add coconut, I would layer it over the frosting.

In reply to Cookie and Kate.

Thank you. I used a loaf tin, so I guess that is the problem. Next time, I will use the cake pan. I still enjoyed it :)
