Cinnamon Tea Cake
Dear Aunt Daisy, Could you publish in The Listener the recipe for a cinnamon cake? I used to make it years ago, but the recipe has been mislaid. It has no eggs and as far as I- remember, no sugar. I am sure it has wheatmeal and a cup of syrup, and is simply delicious cut in slices and spread with butter.
