This is my all time favourite cake recipe. It tastes of the autumn and never fails to please.  I was inspired by a recipe I found in the BBC Good food magazine.  I adapted that to make it gluten and dairy free and this is the result. It is perfect made with my plain wholegrain gluten-free flour blend.

Plum Cake

Gluten-free, Daiy-free, Nut-free, Soya-free
Author Vicki Montague, the Free From Fairy

Ingredients

  • 140 g dairy-free margarine
  • 140 g white sugar
  • 3 medium free range eggs
  • 140 g plain Free From Fairy flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp gluten-free baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp psyllium powder or 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
  • Zest of 1 lime or lemon or orange
  • 2 tbsp juice of choice use whichever fruit you chose above
  • 200 g plums stoned and chopped into pieces
  • Light brown sugar for decorating

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 160 degrees/140degrees fan oven/gas 3
  2. Grease a 1kg/2lb loaf tin
  3. Beat the margarine and sugar together until they are pale and fluffy (at least 1 minute)
  4. Add eggs and beat for a further minute or so (with an electric whisk - longer if by hand) - the mixture will separate, don't worry!
  5. Combine the flour with the baking powder and psyllium in a separate bowl
  6. Fold in the dry mix with the zest of the fruit you are using and 2 tbsp of the juice you are using.
  7. Add the plums and gently mix in
  8. Spoon mix into the prepared tin and bake for approx 1 hour. Check after 50 mins because your oven will cook at a different time from mine. A skewer should come out clean when it is done.
  9. Once the cake has cooled, decorate with a scattering of light brown sugar

Welcome!

Hi! I'm Vicki Montague, also known as the Free From Fairy. I'm scientist and mum to 'Roo' (10) and 'Sunshine', who used to be 'Pickle', (8) and spend many hours in my kitchen experimenting with food to create exciting healthy free from recipes that are all gluten-free & mainly dairy-free. In July 2016 I launched the world's first wholegrain, gluten-free (and rice-free) flour blends. Find out more about my story...
