3 Ingredient Fruit Cake

3 Ingredient Fruit Cake

This recipe has been doing the rounds for years. Egg free. Butter free. Diabetic friendly. No added sugar. Makes an awesome Christmas Cake.

Ingredients:

1kg mixed fruit (I used dates and sultanas)
3 cups black tea
3 cups self-raising flour


Directions:

Preheat oven to 125C. Soak fruit in tea overnight. Stir flour into soaked fruit and mix well. Add more tea if the mixture is too dry. It is quite a thick mixture but sometimes the fruit really absorbs the liquid and it is hard to dampen the flour. Spoon mixture into a 22cm lined cake tin. Bake for 2½ hours or until cooked through. Remove and leave to cool. Wrap in tinfoil or place in an airtight container. Keeps for a month.
