A wonderfully easy, low-fat, moist fruitcake. High in fibre. Recipe given to me by a gym instructor about 15 years ago. Make 2 cakes (1 small & 1 larger). Needs overnight soaking. Freezes well. Ingredients:
1 cup all-bran cereal |
1 cup brown sugar |
1 cup mixed dried fruit |
375 ml stout beer |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 teaspoon ginger |
2 eggs |
2 cups self raising flour |
Directions:
1. Mix together cereal, sugar, fruit and stout. Leave to soak overnight.
2. Next day: Preheat oven to moderate (180 deg Cel). Grease well (important) 1 round and 1 log tin.
3. Stir spices, egg and SR flour into soaked fruit. Mix until combined.
4. Put mixture into tins and bake for 30-40 minutes. Top may need covering with foil towards the end to protect fruit. Cool in tin.
5. To freeze, double wrap in plastic wrap.
