Pork-n-Beans Cake

Ingredients

• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 3 eggs
• 1 (15 ounce) can baked beans with pork
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup raisins (optional)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour five 16 ounce cans OR two 8 x 4 inch loaf pans.

In a large bowl, mix sugar, oil, eggs, and beans until smooth.

In a separate bowl combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and soda. Add to bean mixture, stirring just until combined. Stir in raisins and vanilla. Fill cans 2/3 full with batter, or divide batter into prepared loaf pans.

Place cans or pans on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool completely on wire racks before removing bread from cans or pans.
