The spices included in the fruitcake recipe all come with several health benefits - cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and cloves - and therefore have the explained properties.
Ingredients
4 eggs*
4 Tbsp honey
1/8 cup butter
1 banana
1 1/3 cup ground almonds
2/4 cup coconut flour
2 Tsp cream of tartar
2 Tsp ground cinnamon
2 Tsp ground vanilla bean
2 Tsp ground cloves
2 Tsp ground nutmeg
2 Tsp cardamom
3/4 cup ground walnuts*
1/2 cup dried, dates, pitted
1/2 cup dried figs
1 apple
* Please check the recipe for ingredients and make sure there are no ingredients included to which you or a family member are allergic or known to be sensitive.
And that is how it is done
1. Preheat the oven to 320°F and grease a loaf pan (9 x 5 inches) with butter.
2. Beat the eggs in a mixer until fluffy, then stir in the honey and butter.
3. Peel the banana, mish with a fork and stir into the egg mixture.
4. Stir the almonds, coconut flour, cream of tartar and all spices into the mixture.
5. Roughly chop the walnuts, dates and figs (in a food processor if possible) and stir into the mixture.
6. Peel the apple, remove the core, cut into small cubes and stir into the mixture.
7. Knead everything well into a dough. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake in the oven for 1 hour.
8. If the bread is getting too brown, cover it with a piece of parchment paper and continue baking until the hour is full.
