Recipe's preparation
- Put dates in thermomix and chop roughly (10s speed 5)
- Chop almonds roughly in thermomix if desired (10s speed 5)
- In a very large bowl, add all fruits and nuts. Sprinkle flour over the fruit and stir to combine.
- Stir in brandy and mix thoroughly. Cover and leave for at least 24 hours.
- Using the butterfly whisk, cream the butter at speed 4. Check every 30s and scrape down the edges. Keep repeating until the butter is the colour of cream.
- Add brown sugar and continue creaming at speed 4 until it is combined well. Keep the thermomix stirring at speed 4 and crack in eggs one at a time. Set aside.
- Into a separate bowl, sift the flour, bicarbonate, and spices.
- Into another bowl or jug, combine the apple juice and golden syrup.
- Add both the flour mix and the syrup mix to the butter, alternating. Stir the mixture at speed 2 while this occurs.
- Carefully combine the batter into the fruit mix.
- Grease a 20cm cake tin (or I use a selection of smaller tins filled to about 3/4). Line the tin with baking paper.
- Bake in the oven at 140 degrees. 3 hours for a 20cm cake; 1½ hours for a 10 cm cake.
