Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 2/3 cups flour; 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon; 1 teaspoon ground ginger; 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg; 1/2 cup softened butter; 1 1/2 cups sugar (or less); 3 eggs; 2 very ripe Hass avocados, mashed; 1 cup milk; zest from one small lime (about 2 tablespoons)

Servings: persons

2 2/3 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup softened butter
1 1/2 cups sugar (or less)
3 eggs
2 very ripe Hass avocados, mashed
1 cup milk
zest from one small lime (about 2 tablespoons)

1
Preheat your oven to 350.
2
Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices together in a mixing bowl.
3
Cream butter and sugar together in a separate bowl, then beat in the eggs, mashed avocado, and lime zest. (I used a hand mixer, which took a while, but was ultimately fine.)
4
Add a little bit at a time of your dry ingredient mixture and your milk until fully incorporated. Goopy-but-smooth is what you're after.
5
Pour batter into seasoned cast iron skillet and pop it in the oven, baking until a toothpick or similar (I use chop sticks for this) stuck into the middle comes out clean. Start checking on it around 50 minutes. In my oven, this took about 65 minutes.
6
Definitely have a slice while it's piping hot.
