Prune Cake

Prunes are sweet and juicy dried plums with a number of health benefits. Bought some from a Mall some days back and was thinking of how to use it. Finally mixed it in a plain cake recipe.....


Ingredients


  • Prunes - 100 gms  
  • Butter - 125 gms
  • Sugar - 125 gms
  • Eggs - 2
  • Flour - 125 gms
  • Baking Powder - 2 gms
  • Vanilla Essence - few drops






Soften and whisk the butter until it is creamy.


Add sugar and whisk again for a few minutes. Add eggs one at a time beating well after each addition.


Add chopped prunes. Mix sifted flour with baking powder and vanilla essence.


Grease a cake tin with butter. Pour the mixture into the tin with care so that the tin is filled about two third of its height.


Bake ina pre-heated oven at 180 degree C for 35 minutes and then leave it to cool for 10 minutes.


Turn down the tin on to a plate and cool completely. Enjoy with tea or coffee.
