For a fruit cake that won't disappoint, continually baste with cherry brandy and store for two weeks before eating!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 1 cup currants
  • 1 6 oz bag, dried cranberries
  • 1 4 oz bag, dried blueberries
  • 1 5 oz bag, dried cherries
  • 1/6 cup dried apricots, chopped
  • 1/6 cup dried pineapple, chopped
  • 1/6 cup dried mangos, chopped
  • 1 lemon, zested and zest chopped
  • 1 orange, zested and zest chopped
  • 1/4 cup candied ginger, chopped
  • 1 cup spiced rum
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 1/4 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 cup unfiltered apple cider
  • 4 whole cloves, ground
  • 6 allspice berries, ground
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup toasted pecans, chopped
  • Cherry brandy for basting and/or spritzing

Directions

  • Combine all the dried fruits, the zests, and the candied ginger in a large bowl. Add the rum and let them macerate overnight.
  • Add the fruit and rum the next day to a non-reactive saucepan. Add sugar, butter, apple cider, and spices. Bring mixture to a boil while stirring constantly. Boil for 10 minutes over medium heat. Let this mixture cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Chop the pecans and roast until fragrant, about 5–10 minutes. Turn heat down to 325°F.
  • Add fruit mixture into a large mixing bowl. Sift the dry ingredients into the fruit mixture. Stir until just combined. Stir in the eggs one at a time until incorporated. Fold in pecans.
  • Pour batter into a 10-inch, nonstick loaf pan or a well-greased loaf pan and bake for 1 hour at 325°F. Cake is done when it passes the toothpick test.
  • Let the cake cool completely in the pan before removing. Place cake in an airtight container and baste with brandy.
  • Continue to baste every 2–3 days. The cake will be wonderful in about 2 weeks.
