Poor Man's Fruitcake
Hold on! No need to send me politically correct (or woke) notes/emails/texts regarding the name of this nutritious AND delicious loaf. The name (and recipe) is generations old, and until I find a more clever title, PMC stays!
To be honest, “fruitcake” is a misnomer, as is “poor man”, because this loaf does not contain that dreaded dried, hard to chew, fruit. Nor is it inexpensive to make!
Let’s be real: when you tell someone you’ll bring “fruitcake” to a party, they’ll put on that fake smile and nod, knowing the treat will be tossed out as soon as you leave. Or they’ll say, “We didn’t put you fruitcake out because we have enough food on the table”… blah blah blah.
When I bring fruitcake to an event, I slice it first. Within minutes, it’s gone and people want more. Duh, it’s great!!! Chewy, crunchy (dates and nuts), not too sweet and feels good in your belly.
English walnuts, dates, GF flour, unbleached sugar, eggs, vanilla
These are small, personal sized loaves. One loaf can easily be cut into eight very generous slices.
Order more than one. It’s that good.
