2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ginger

1 cup brown sugar

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 cup corn oil

1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 egg, beaten

1 cup buttermilk

1-1/2 C Fruit (fresh or frozen)

Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

Mix together in a large bowl the flour, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ginger, both sugars, and corn oil.  Remove 3/4 cup of this mixture, and add the nuts and the remaining teaspoon of cinnamon to it.  Mix well, and set aside to use as the topping.

To the remaining batter, add the baking soda, baking powder, egg, and buttermilk.  Mix to combine all the ingredients.  Small lumps in the batter are OK. (add 1-1/2 Cup Fruit gently fold into batter) Pour the batter into a well-greased 9’ x 13” pan.  Sprinkle the topping mixture evenly over the surface.  Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. If you added fruit - check cake - baking time may need to be added.
