Amish Cakes

The Amish take the cake, or should we say, they bake the cake.  Cakes are a super easy dessert perfectly suited to a busy Amish home that is usually full of children.  Nothing is easy than a simple “stir and bake” recipe.  Most cakes are compromised of the basic building blocks of baking: eggs, flour, and butter.  Once you have those, you can branch out with flavors, leavenings, frostings, and so on.
Massive sheet cakes can feed an army of people, or a small round cake is perfect for a small birthday celebration. There are strawberry, spice, vanilla, chocolate, and coffeecakes. There are also nut cakes and crumb cakes, and apple cakes.  There’s even a delicious, Old-Fashioned Pear Cake, and the list can go on and on for inventive Amish bakers. So peruse our authentic collection of Amish cake recipes and enjoy!
