-
In a large bowl cream together the butter and sugar with a fork.
-
Whisk the eggs into the sunflower spread and sugar, one egg at a time. You will end up with a runny, grainy mix which almost looks curdled.
-
Sieve in the flour and add the ground almonds, fold into the mix until well combined.
-
Add in the mixed fruit and almond milk and mix well.
-
Grease a large loaf tin and line with grease proof paper, place in the mix into the tin and then put in an oven preheated to gas mark 4/180c for 1 and half to 2 hours. The cake is cooked when a knife or skewer pushed into the middle comes out clean.
Gluten Free Rich Fruit Loaf
Back to all recipes.A rich fruit cake is the traditional cake of choice at Christmas time, but it doesn't only have to be for Christmas. A lovely fruit loaf goes great with a good strong cup of tea, this one is gluten and dairy free so no need to miss out on a good slab of it. You could even pretend it's Bara Brith, it is fairly close in flavour.

Your Comments
Please advise how I can make a similar loaf but without using egg, as I am vegan (almost!).
Also how this recipe can be made high fibre.
Thanks

Hi, I haven't tried so don't know if it will work but could use a flax egg or an egg replacer. For extra fibre you could maybe add apple or even nuts.
