Kue Natal - Kue buah lembab yang MUDAH
Recipe video above. This is an easy Christmas Cake that requires no overnight fruit soaking. It's a fruit cake that's incredibly easy to make, with a rich, velvety texture that's full flavoured and so moist it can be eaten plain. (But no one turns away a slosh of custard!) Just as good m

Langkah-langkah
-
Place dried fruit and juice/brandy in a large microwavable container. Microwave 1 1/2 minutes on high or until hot.
-
Stir to coat all fruit in liquid. Cover then set aside for 1 hour (to plump up/soak and cool).
-
Preheat oven to 160°C / 320°F (140°C fan). Grease and line a 21 - 22 cm / 8 - 9" round cake pan with baking paper (parchment paper) (7 cm / 2.75" tall).
-
Using an electric beater, beat butter and sugar until smooth and creamy (about 1 minute on speed 5).
-
Add oil and molasses, beat until combined.
-
Add salt, spices and baking powder - beat until incorporated.
-
Add eggs, one at a time, beating until just incorporated
-
Stir in the flour.
-
When mostly incorporated, stir in the fruit mix (including all the extra liquid in bowl) and walnuts (if using).
-
Pour into cake pan, cover with foil and bake for 2 1/2 hours. Remove the foil then bake for another 30 to 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into middle comes out clean with no batter on it (check first at 30 minutes).
-
Remove from oven and cool for 20 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Cool completely before serving.
-
Cake is moist and so full flavoured, it can be eaten plain. But see below for decorating and serving ideas (traditionally served with pouring custard).
-
Cutting: Either cut into thin wedges, or cut cake into thin strips (2cm / 0.75" or so), then cut those strips into serving size pieces.
-
Traditional White Christmas Cake (pictured in post) - Marzipan and fondant, see Decorating Note.
-
Simple - pile top with fresh cherries or other fruit, dust with icing sugar (powdered sugar). Wrap a ribbon around the cake for extra touch!
-
Drippy white glaze - use the glaze in this Lemon Cake recipe, but leave out the lemon juice (ie make a plain sweet white glaze). Flip cake upside down for flat surface then glaze per that recipe.
-
Serving - serve with custard for a traditional experience! Either homemade custard or store bought pouring custard (jazz it up by mixing in vanilla seed paste!).
