GREEN TOMATO BREAKFAST CAKE (OR PLUM)
When Marion Burros ran this simple recipe in the New York Times, it became the paper's single most requested recipe. Based on a 40-year-old recipe for plum cake that first appeared in Marion Burros and Lois Levine's The Elegant but Easy Cookbook, this cake is just as good for dessert as it is for breakfast. We substituted green tomatoes for the plums originally called for, but you can use either.

GREEN TOMATO CAKE
I was overrun with green tomatoes that weren't going to ripen & found this recipe on Serious Eats. It is really tasty, something different other than making chutney with them. I halved the recipe and it was the perfect size for a loaf cake.

Steps:
- For the cake, adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 325°F Lightly coat cake pans with baking spray. Line bottoms of cake pans with parchment paper rounds and coat lightly with baking spray once again.
- Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, allspice, salt, and nutmeg in medium bowl or on large sheet of parchment paper.
- In large bowl, beat oil and sugar on medium speed until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add tomatoes and beat just until incorporated, about 30 seconds.
- Decrease mixer speed to low and gradually add flour mixture to green tomato mixture. Mix just until combined, scraping down sides and bottom of bowl as necessary.
- Divide batter equally between baking pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of cakes comes out clean, 45 to 60 minutes. Transfer cakes to cooling racks and cool in pans for 15 minutes. Invert cakes directly onto racks. Peel off and discard parchment lining and cool completely, about 90 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease two 9x5 bread pans and set aside. Tip: You may want to put a piece of parchment paper on the bottom or nonstick foil. Mine tend to stick a little to the pan when only using cooking spray. In a mixing bowl combine sugar and oil. Mix well. Add eggs, vanilla and salt. Mix well again, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Add cinnamon, baking soda, and baking powder. Slowly add flour until completely combined. Mixture will be thick. Add in diced tomatoes and stir well. Mixture will thin out from moisture tomatoes bring. If adding walnuts, add now. (Photos are with walnuts) Pour half of batter in each pan. Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean from center of bread. Cool for 5 minutes in pan and then remove from pan and cool on a rack.
Tips:
- To ensure a moist and flavorful cake, use ripe, in-season tomatoes.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- For a sweeter cake, add an extra 1/2 cup of sugar.
- If you want a more tart cake, add an extra 1/4 cup of lemon juice.
- For a crunchier topping, sprinkle the cake with chopped nuts or streusel before baking.
- Serve the cake warm or at room temperature for the best flavor.
