Health Fruit Cake recipe

Is there someone who don't like fruit cakes??? It is so colorful and delicious I beat everybody in your family will just love it. I replaced "Sugar" with "brown Sugar", and "Butter" with "Refined Oil", to make the cake little bit healthier. I hope you will like it.

N.B: While making fruit cakes, the batter needs to be heavy enough for the dried fruit and nuts to be suspended in it; if it's too thin the fruit will sink to the bottom.

Ingredients:
1. All-purpose flour - 2 Cups,
2. Refined oil- 1 cup,
3. Dry fruits of your choice - 1 cup (I used-A mixer of chopped dates, raisins, walnuts, cashews, chopped fresh cherries)
4. Brown Sugar- 1 cup,
5. Baking powder- 1 teaspoon,
6. Eggs- 2,
7. Milk - 1/2 cup

Procedure:
1. Pre heat the oven at 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Grease a oven proof pan with the refined oil.
2. Beat the eggs until it is light and fluffy. Gradually add the sugar and the oil, Mix well.
3. Add the flour and slowly fold it together with the egg, sugar and oil mixer. Add the milk and combine together.
4. Add the dry fruit mixer to the cake batter. Combine fruit/nut mixture with creamed ingredients and mix well to distribute the fruit and nuts evenly.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 45~60 minutes until a toothpick or wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.


6. Remove the cake from the oven and place on a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy
