HELLO THERE MY CHEERFUL CHEFS! Merry Christmas! So as you can see I am clearly excited but who wouldn't be? Its Christmas! So today we are doing the second recipe using the 3 in 1 fruit mix and it is fruit cake! I guess it would be like an exception to the Christmas pudding if you didn't want to go though all of that trouble of steaming the cake for 5 hours and all of that.
Joten avulla pääset alkuun! (So lets get started!)
You will need: 4 1/4 cups of fruit mix, 185g of butter, 3 eggs lightly beaten, 1 1/2 cups of gluten free plain flour, 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and 1/4 cup of brandy.
To begin, preheat the oven to 140 degrees Celsius (Yes that low!). Line base and sides of a deep 20cm round cake pan (or anything close to that). Line the sides with baking paper exceeding 5cm over the edge.
Place fruit mix in a large bowl and stir in the butter, eggs and sifted flour and soda. Spread the mixture into a pan and level the top. Bake for about 2 1/2 hours and then brush the hot cake with the brandy. While still hot and in its pan, cover the cake tightly with foil and then wrap with a towel and cool overnight.
So there it is, simple fruit cake! Just before I go, I will try to upload a recipe for the perfect cooked turkey, but if I don't, I will still finish this series. Don't forget to spread the Christmas magic and have a wonderful day! And until next time, keep on cooking!
