Ingredients
- 250 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseeds
- 6 tablespoons Water
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 150 grams Coconut sugar
- 120 milliliters Unsweetened applesauce
- 80 milliliters Maple syrup
- 180 milliliters Non-dairy milk (such as oat or rice milk)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 300 grams Dried fruits (e.g., raisins, cranberries, chopped apricots)
- 100 grams Chopped seed mix (e.g., sunflower and pumpkin seeds)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseeds with water. Stir well and let it sit for 5–10 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix the coconut sugar, applesauce, maple syrup, non-dairy milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the dried fruits and chopped seeds, ensuring an even distribution throughout the batter.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the fruitcake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy your delicious, allergy-free fruitcake!
