Vegan Fruit Cake (Eliot)
Karen Mintzias
2 1/2 cup 100% whole wheat flour
1 tsp Mixed spice
1/4 lb Vegan margarine, PLUS:
4 tbsp Vegan margarine
1 cup Real Barbados sugar
1 1/2 cup Mixed dried fruit
1/4 cup Mixed candied peel
1/4 cup Glac‚ cherries
-rinsed and halved
1 Orange, rind grated
2 tbsp Ground almonds
1/4 cup Blanched almonds, chopped
1/2 cup Soy milk or water
2 tbsp Vinegar
3/4 tsp Baking soda
Extra vegan margarine
-for greasing


Preheat the oven to 300 F. Grease an 8-inch layer cake pan and line
with a double layer of greased wax paper

Sift the flour with the mixed spice into a mixing bowl. Rub the
margarine into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture looks
like fine breadcrumbs, then stir in the sugar, dried fruit, mixed
peel, cherries, orange rind, ground and blanched almonds.

Warm half the soy milk or water in a small saucepan and add the
vinegar. Dissolve the baking soda in the rest of the soy milk or
water, then combine the two mixtures.

Stir this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring well so that
everything is combined. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan.
Bake for 2 to 2-1/2 hours, or until a skewer inserted into the center
of the cake comes out clean.

Leave the cake in the pan to cool, then remove and strip off the wax
paper. Transfer to a wire rack and allow the cake to cool completely.

Advice on losing weight

If you wish to become slim and also improve your all round well-being, then, without doubt, you should follow a specially configured healthy-minded weight loss program. Ideally, this need to involve five portions of fruit & veg per day and contain a sensible mix of food types.

When selecting food, dieters far too often concentrate upon supermarket and well known foods sold as 'low in fat'. This is frequently a miscalculation, given that a food item may be lowered in fat content, but also contain far too many calories and carbohydrates.

In deciding on a weight loss system, it is essential to also make sure you decrease your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
