I'm not a huge fan of cake, but this one is an exception. It's moist and flavorful, and I love the hint of cinnamon.

I was skeptical at first, but this cake is actually really good! It's not as dense as I thought it would be, and the flavor is surprisingly rich.

This cake is a testament to the power of simple ingredients. It's moist, flavorful, and surprisingly satisfying, given the lack of butter, eggs, and milk. I'll definitely be making this again!
