Recipes FAQ

Can I use fresh fruit instead of dried fruit?

No, this recipe requires dried fruit. Fresh fruit contains too much moisture and will make the cake too wet.

Can I use a different type of oil?

Yes, you can use any neutral-tasting oil, such as canola or grapeseed oil.

Can I make this fruit cake recipe gluten-free?

Yes, you can use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend in place of the regular flour.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to chop the dried fruit into small pieces so it distributes evenly throughout the cake.
  • Don't overmix the batter, as this can make the cake tough.
  • If the cake is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with foil during the last 30 minutes of baking.
  • Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the fridge for up to a week.
