Comment préparer Simply Fruitcake
- Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F). Grease and line a 20cm square cake tin with parchment paper.
- Soak 300g mixed dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, currants, etc.) in 150ml freshly squeezed orange juice for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 200g self-raising flour, 1 tsp mixed spice, 1 tsp baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Gently fold in the soaked fruit and its juice into the flour mixture. Add 100g chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Add 150g honey or maple syrup and 2 large eggs. Beat until well combined, but don't overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared cake tin and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the fruitcake cool slightly in the tin before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar (optional) and enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee!
