Parkin (v)

This is an excellent vegan cake, that doesn't need any strange combinations of ingredients to replace the missing eggs. It's spicy, warming and gets better with age. Assuming you can keep it for more than a few days.

For 1 2lb loaf cake you need:
100g plain flour
100g butter/vegan margarine
100g dark brown sugar
100g treacle
100g golden syrup
175ml soya milk
2 tsp ginger
2 tsp baking powder
100g oats

Melt together the marge/butter, syrup, treacle and sugar. Leave to cool for 10-15 mins or until you can comfortably put your hand against the side of the pan. Meanwhile mix together the dry ingredients. Once the sugar/syrup/fat mix is cool enough mix them together along with the soya milk. Don't worry about the batter being very thin! Pour in to a lined loaf tin and bake at 160 degrees for about 30 mins till risen and cooked.
