Pineapple fruit cake

A tin of crushed pineapple adds sweetness and moisture to this fruit cake and takes the place of eggs, butter and refined sugar. Less rich than many fruitcakes but with a structural stability that withstands travel for morning tea on the beach.

Ingredients
  • 425g tin crushed pineapple in juice
  • 400g dried fruit

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
