Fruit Date and Nut Cake is a rich, delicious and an excellent Cake that almost everyone knows. In this one, I have used almost all the Dry Fruits, Tutti Fruiti and most importantly Dates. I have incorporated Dates in this one for a lovely taste and flavour. A beautiful twist in all.
It's an awesome one at that and most of us know it since childhood. I hope many of you will agree when I say that it formed an integral part of our childhood memories. Isn't it guys? The freshly baked Cake from the choicest of bakeries near our houses made our day. YEH UN DINON KI BAAT HAI!
The lovely aroma of it will fill our hearts with an eager to take a quick bite of it. It's yummy with evening Tea and is a lovely tea-time accompaniment.
It's made on many occasions too. And is most popularly called Christmas Cake too.
But without any alcohol traces, this one is relished by my family on many a family get togethers and reunions. And I have made it exclusively in my own way. So let's get started then.

Happy Baking with Zeen!

Cooking Instructions

45 minutes
  1. 1

    In this particular Cake, the changes I have made are absolutely responsible for it's super duper fluffy texture and flavour too. The important change in this that I have made is to beat Egg whites until stiff and done. The yellow part or the Egg Yolk can be whisked separately along with Sugar and Oil. The second change that I have made is to use Oil instead of Butter.

  2. 2

    Sift all the dry ingredients as we usually do in any Baking. Fold it in the wet mix along with all the Nuts, Seeds, Dates and Tutti Fruiti. Use Milk while mixing.

    And then lastly, fold in the Egg whites slowly until incorporated well. Tap it once and bake on 160° in a fan assisted preheated oven for about 40 minutes or until done.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
