Fruit Cake Loaf
Ingredients
2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
1 cup (200g) brown sugar
1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup (120ml) orange juice (or milk)
2 cups (300g) mixed dried fruits (raisins, currants, sultanas, chopped dates, apricots, cherries)
½ cup (75g) chopped nuts (walnuts, almonds, or pecans, optional)
Zest of 1 orange or lemon
Instructions
Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with orange juice. Toss the dried fruits and nuts with 2 tablespoons of flour (to prevent sinking), then fold them into the batter along with citrus zest. Pour into a greased and lined loaf pan. Bake at 170°C (340°F) for 55–65 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
This loaf tastes even better after resting for a day as the flavors deepen.Fruit Cake Loaf
