Mystery Ingredient Fruit and Nut Cake
Prep: 10 Minutes - Cook: 40 Minutes - Easy - Serves 12
Proudly supported by

TIP! The pan we used is available from major supermarkets. Cake can be made up to three days ahead. Keep in an airtight container, at room temperature. Try serving sliced cake with butter.

Ingredients

75g unsalted butter, melted

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1 egg

300g can condensed tomato soup

¾ cup raisins (120g), chopped

¾ cup walnuts (80g), coarsely chopped

1 ½ cups plain flour

2 teaspoons mixed spice

1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

½ teaspoon baking powder

Icing sugar mixture, to decorate

Method

  1. Grease a 24cm round, non-stick bundt pan. 

  2. Using a wire whisk, whisk butter, sugar and egg in a large bowl until smooth. Whisk in soup until combined. Stir in raisins and walnuts.

  3. Sift combined flour, spice, soda and baking powder into a separate, large bowl. In two batches, stir into soup mixture until well combined. Spoon evenly into prepared pan. 

  4. Cook in a moderately slow oven (160C) for about 40 minutes, or until cooked when a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Remove from oven. Stand in pan for 10 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Transfer to a serving plate.

  5. Serve dusted with sifted icing sugar.
