Grenadian Spice Cake

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

½ tsp. baking powder

1/8 tsp. salt

1 ½ cups white sugar

1 cup unsalted butter – chilled, cut into tablespoon-size pieces

1 ½ tsp. grated lime zest

1 tsp. ground nutmeg

½ tsp. ground cinnamon

¼ tsp. ground allspice

3 eggs

½ cup milk

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt, set aside. In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the lime zest, nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice. Add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, stirring after each addition. Pour batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 75 to 90 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool completely. Recipe makes 1 cake.
