Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup mixed dried fruit

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare the pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a small loaf pan to ensure the cake doesn’t stick.
  2. Mix ingredients: In a bowl, combine the self-rising flour, sweetened condensed milk, and mixed dried fruit. Stir gently until all ingredients are just combined to form the batter.
  3. Pour the batter: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
  4. Bake the cake: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating that the cake is cooked through.
  5. Cool the cake: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, remove it from the pan and place it on a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute mixed dried fruit with your favorite dried fruits like raisins, cranberries, or chopped apricots.
  • If you don’t have self-rising flour, mix 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt as a substitute.
  • The cake will keep well for 3-4 days stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • For an extra moist cake, you can brush the top with a little melted butter after baking.
