Ingredients:
300g Low Mix flour
150g Unsalted Butter (softened)
150g Dark Demerara Sugar
225ml Sno Pro
3tsp baking powder
1tsp cinnamon
1tsp All spice
2 zest of Orange
4tsp egg replacer
1 tbsp black treacle
Juice of half orange
200g mixed dried fruit
1tsp Vanilla extract
Method:
- Soak the dried fruit in water and the zest of one orange over night.
- Pre-heat the oven to 190 degrees c.
- Line a deep cake tin with grease proof paper.
- Mix together the sugar and the butter until you get a smooth paste.
- Add all your dry ingredients into a large bowl, and mix well.
- Add the orange juice, Sno Pro, Vanilla, Treacle, into the butter and sugar, and beat together well (the mix should look like a bit of a mess at this point but don't worry, it will look like a cake batter when the flour goes in!)
- Add the dry ingredients bit by bit until it is all well combined.
- Strain all the dry fruit and add to the cake mix and stir in well, until all the fruit is coated in the batter.
- Put the cake batter into your lined cake tin tin, and bake for around 30-40 mins.
- Leave to cool, on a cake rack.
- Drizzle over an orange icing (150g icing sugar, mixed to a paste with the juice of 1 orange, and the add as much water as it takes to make a runny icing). this makes the cake wonderfully moist.
Tip
I made this for my son, but for any grown up wanting to use the recipe, soak the fruit in brandy and orange zest over night.
