Provided by Bincy Chris

Categories     Breakfast

Time 2h40m

Number Of Ingredients 19

228 g Flour (1 3/4 cup)
226 g Butter (2 sticks/1 cup)
100 g Brown sugar (1/2 cup)
45 g Mollasses (3 tbsp (can use brown sugar instead))
3 Eggs
1 tsp Cinnamon powder
1 tsp Ground All spices
1 tsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Salt
180 ml Water (3/4 cup)
Zest of 1 orange
Zest of 1 lemon
600-800 g Dry Fruits and nuts
175 g Raisins
200 g Dried Cranberries
200 g Prunes
100 g Dates
75 g Chopped Pecans
Nutmeg,cloves,cardamom,dry ginger

Steps:

  • Step 1.Boil the dry fruits In a medium saucepan, combine the butter with the raisins, cranberries, brown sugar,molasses and water and bring to a boil. Simmer over moderately high heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and let stand for 45 minutes or until it is cool.Step 2.Add all the rest of ingredientsAdd the eggs (lightly beaten) and vanilla extract(optional) and the nuts.Add in the flour mix which is Flour+Baking powder+Salt+Ground spices+Zest of orange and lemon.I didn't add the spices and the zest of lemon and orange into the boil mix because we need to preserve the fresh smell of those spices and that of lemon and orange.The taste of a fruit cake is mostly the aroma of that cake :)Mix everything together, just until everything is well incorporated.Step 3.Bake the fruit cakeTransfer the batter into the prepared pan.7 inch pan / 8 inch pan will work. Bake in the center of the oven @ 320F for about 75-90 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.Large baking tray (8 inch) will take slightly less baking time. Let the cake cool completely.Unmold the cake and transfer to a serving platter. This fruit cake is best to serve the next day.The flavor and texture of cake improves a lot with that time.The cake may seem buttery and crumbly and less flavorful if we cut it immediately it is cooled.

RICH DARK FRUITCAKE



Rich Dark Fruitcake image

This is my mother's very old recipe, at least 60 years old. My mother baked this for my wedding, and it sure is delicious and also a great Christmas cake. This is a very long recipe, but well worth the trouble. You can substitute a cup of drained maraschino cherries for the candied cherries, if you like.

Time 6h

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 24

6 cups golden raisins
3 cups dried currants
1 ½ cups pitted dates
6 cups raisins
1 pound candied mixed citrus peel
½ pound candied cherries
2 cups almonds
2 cups butter
3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground allspice
4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon almond extract
2 cups white sugar
12 egg yolks
½ cup molasses
12 egg whites
½ cup grape juice
½ cup strong brewed coffee

Steps:

  • Wash and dry the raisins and the currants. Wash, dry, pit, and chop the dates. Chop the raisins and the citrus peel. Slice the cherries. Blanch the almonds, and slice them lengthwise. Combine fruits and nuts in large bowl.
  • Grease and line 3 standard Christmas cake pans (these round pans are at least 3 inches deep and come in a set of three sizes- 5, 7, and 9 inch across) with 4 layers of heavy waxed paper, or 3 layers of brown paper. Grease again. Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and spices onto a piece of waxed paper. Remove 1 cup of this flour mixture, and combine with fruit and nuts. Mix until fruit is well coated.
  • Cream the butter until fluffy. Add extracts. Gradually add sugar, mixing until creamy. Beat egg yolks until light and lemon-colored, and beat into the butter mixture. Stir in the molasses, and beat together well. Add half of the remaining flour mixture, and blend thoroughly.
  • Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry; fold into batter. Stir in lightly the remaining flour mixture alternately with grape juice and coffee. Add floured fruit and nuts, blending in until fruit is well distributed.
  • Turn batter into prepared cake tins, filling each about 2/3 full and spreading batter evenly. Bake in center of oven. Bake small cake 2 1/2 hours, medium cake 3 1/2 hours, and large cake 4 to 4 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and allow to stand 5 minutes, then turn out on wire rack to cool.

Categories     Cakes and Cupcakes

Time P1DT2h

Number Of Ingredients 28

1¼ cups (200 g) dark raisins
1¼ cups (200 g) golden raisins
2 cups (320 g) mixed unsweetened dried fruit, chopped
1 cup (160 g) dried unsweetened black figs (chopped)
1 cup (160 g) dried unsweetened tart cherries (chopped)
¾ cup (120 g) dried unsweetened prunes (chopped)
¾ cup (6 oz; 180 mL) dark rum
1½ cups (180 g) unbleached all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1 stick (4 oz; 115 g) unsalted butter (softened)
¾ cup (160 g) packed light brown sugar
5 large eggs (room temperature)
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange zest
½ cup (120 mL) freshly squeezed orange juice
1 Granny Smith apple (peeled and coarsely grated)
¾ cup (90 g) slivered almonds (or chopped pecans or walnuts)
3 tablespoons (36 g) finely diced crystallized ginger
one batch soaked fruit mixture (see above)
⅔ cup (100 g) chopped bittersweet chocolate or dark chocolate chips (optional)
medium sherry or triple sec (for soaking)
¼ cup (72 g) apricot preserves
¼ cup (60 mL) water
whole pecans (for garnishing)

Steps:

  • The Day Before Baking: Combine the dried fruit in a large mixing bowl. Add the dark rum, cover, and allow the mixture to soak at room temperature for a minimum of 12 hours, or ideally 24 hours prior to preparing the fruit cake batter.
  • Prepare the Fruitcake: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) with a rack in the center position. Set aside two 8x4-inch All Clad Pro-Release Bakeware Loaf Pans. If using these pans, you do not need to line or grease the pans prior to adding the batter. Equipment Note: This fruitcake can also be prepared using 9x5-inch loaf pans. If using other types of pans, lightly grease and line with parchment paper.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and light brown sugar together over medium-high speed for 3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to medium and add the eggs one at a time, beating just until each egg is incorporated. The mixture will look slightly broken, that's ok.
  • Over low speed, slowly add the flour mixture until just absorbed. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer. Add the lemon zest, orange zest, fresh orange juice, grated apple, slivered almonds, diced candied ginger, soaked dried fruit mixture (along with any liquid if it hasn't already been absorbed), and chocoate (if using). Stir mixture with a large spatula, scraping the edges and bottom of the bowl several times, until all of the ingredients are evenly incorporated. It is a very thick, fruit heavy mixture.
  • Transfer and divide the batter evenly among the loaf pans. Use an offset spatula to smooth the batter into an even layer. Set the loaf pans on the center rack, several inches apart from one another. Bake - rotating the pans halfway - for 75 to 90 minutes or until the batter is set and the tops are golden brown. The edges of the cake may also start to pull away slightly from the edges of the pan. Remove from the oven and place on a rack to cool completely before removing from the pans.
  • Storing and Aging: Once the cake has cooled, carefully remove the cakes from the loaf pans and set upright. Soak two large pieces of cheesecloth in medium sherry or triple sec (*they should be lightly damp, not soaking wet when you wrap the cakes, so you may need to squeeze out any excess liquor). Wrap each cake tightly. Cover loafs with wax paper and foil before transferring to a large Ziploc bag. Store in the refrigerator for up to 6 to 8 weeks (it can often last even longer). You can serve this cake right after it has cooled, but the flavors improve greatly with time (I recommend several days or up to a week, at minimum). Unwrap and re-soak the cheesecloth once a week.
  • For Garnishing: If desired, you can top the fruitcake with a light apricot glaze and whole pecans before serving. Note: I don't recommend glazing the cake if you wish to continue to wrap and age the fruitcake. To Prepare the Glaze: Combine the apricot preserves and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a light simmer, stirring until the glaze is shiny and thin. If it is too thin for glazing, reduce to desired consistency. If it becomes too thick, add a teaspoon of water. Brush the tops of the fruitcakes with apricot glaze and garnish with whole pecans.
  • Serving Notes: Slice fruit cake with a serrated knife. Serve on its own or spread with a small amount of salted butter.
