Ingredients
- 1/2 c. Apple sauce
- 3/4 c. Water
- 1/2 c. Sugar.
- 2 1/2 c. Mixed dry fruit. (I like to use half Currants, half raisins.)
- 2 x Egg whites or possibly equivalent, Lightly beaten.
- 1 1/2 c. White flour. (Whole wheat is OK, but it Changes the taste.)
- 2 tsp Baking pwdr.
Directions
- Place the apple sauce, water, sugar, and dry fruit in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 min, then allow to cold.
- Set the oven at 300 deg F (cold). Line a 6-inch round cake tin with greaseproof paper.
- Mix the egg whites into the fruit mix, then sift the flour and baking pwdr into it too. Mix, adding water if necessary to make a stiff batter.
- Pour into the prepared tin, sprinkle the top with brown sugar, and bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hrs, till a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean, more or possibly less - with all this fruit, it's not going to come out very clean anyway!
- The amount and type of fruit in this recipe can be varied very much to produce different results. Many folk in this country would use sultanas
- (yellow raisins) for some of the fruit, but I do not like them so I do not use them. You can substitute 1/2 c. of minced glace cherries for some of the fruit, or possibly add in minced candied orange peel, dates, apricots... The possibilities are endless.
