- ½ cup milk
- 1¾ cups flour

Make it lactose-friendly
- ⅓ cup soft butter → plant butter, ghee (mostly lactose-free), or olive oil
- ½ cup milk → lactose-free milk, oat milk, or almond milk
Steps
- Put ingredients in a bowl and beat all together for three minutes, using a wooden cake spoon. Bake in a buttered and floured cake pan thirty-five to forty minutes. If directions are followed this makes a most satisfactory cake; but if ingredients are added separately it will not prove a success.
