    Caramel Fruit Cake isa rich festive special cake with caramel flavour.This caramel fruit cake is on my totry list for a long time and finally I tried it last week.I love caramel flavour a lot, but its a bit tricky to get the perfect color and consistency without burning it, now that I’ve learnt the trick I confidently went ahead baking this cake.

    This is the perfect season to bake fruit cakes.I soaked the dry fruits in orange juice a day prior to making this cake and as you can see the cake turned out perfect.The texture is so soft but not crumbly so you get firm slices, perfect for gifting too.Do bake this caramel cake this Christmas and enjoy!

    Ingredients

    • 3/4 cup maida
    • 1 tbsp maida for tossing dry fruits
    • 1/2 cup butter
    • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
    • 2 nos eggs
    • 1/2 tsp baking powder
    • 1/4 tsp baking soda
    • 1 tsp vanilla essence optional
    • 1/2 cup dry fruits
    • 1/2 cup plain orange juice

    For the caramel

    • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/4 cup water

    Instructions

    • Separate the egg yolk and egg white and transfer to 2 mixing bowls.
    • Beat the egg white until frothy and stiff peaks are formed, set aside.
    • See the peaks it stands still, that's the perfect consistency. I used my hand blender to achieve this. Whisk the egg yolk and set aside.
    • Next we are going to make caramel syrup. Take a sauce pan - add sugar to it and heat it up in medium flame. Do not mix just heat it up until sugar dissolves.
    • The sugar gets dissolved and turns golden in color. Be at a safer distance and pour water, it may splutter so be careful. Let the syrup boil for 5 seconds switch off. You can now mix it with a spoon and set aside.
    • I soaked the dry fruits in orange juice overnight and rested in fridge.
    • Add a tbsp of flour and toss it, this is to prevent the dry fruits from sinking to the bottom.
    • Preheat oven at 180 deg C.
    • Meanwhile to a siever - add flour, baking powder, baking soda, sieve well.
    • Set the sieved flour aside. In a mixing bowl - add butter and sugar.
    • Whisk until creamy. Now add egg white froth, whisk it once.
    • Add egg yellow mixture, vanilla essence . Mix it. Add caramel syrup. Mix well with a whisk. Add sieved flour.
    • Mix well without any lumps, finally add the dry fruits. Mix with a spatula.
    • Grease your pan, dust with little flour. Spoon the batter into the pan.
    • Bake in preheated oven at 180 deg C for 45-50mins or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. I baked in my mini loaf pan and it took me 40 mins.
    • Cool down completely then invert and demould the cake. Allow at least 30mins before slicing. Enjoy Caramel Fruit Cake!

    Notes

    • I did not add any spice powders, you can add if you prefer.
    • Just the flavour of caramel with a hint of vanilla was enough to make this cake tastes so delicious.
    • I used a combination of candied cherries,tuttifrutti,raisins,dates etc
    • Do not overbake the cake, once it is browned on top and a toothpick inserted deep in the middle of the cake comes out clean, then your cake is done, switch off.
    • As my quantity is less it took less time for me.If you are doubling the recipe then it may take upto an hour.

      This is such a beautiful bake! I am not a fan of fruit cakes but looking at those slices I am tempted to try and bake them when the next craving hits… Is that true that for 3/4 cup flour we use half cup of butter? Sounds like a lot…
