Can also you use edible flowers or fresh berries. Method #1 This recipe will make just two layers. Double to create the full four-layer cake. #2 Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. #3 Place the banana, eggs, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla into a food processor. Process for 2 minutes until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and process for a further minute until thoroughly mixed, scraping the sides as necessary. #4 Grease two sandwich tins very well. #5 Split cake batter between the two tins and give them a wiggle on the counter to flatten out the top. #6 Bake for 25 minutes until lightly golden and a skewer comes out clean when inserted. #7 Set aside to cool for 20 minutes before removing from tin. #8 Cool completely before placing in the fridge for 1 hour to prepare for layering (it is easier to ice the layers when cool and firm from the fridge). #9 Repeat this process to make two more layers. #10 Take the mascarpone and cream cheese out of the fridge one hour (or longer) before you plan to mix the cream together. #11 Use a standing mixer, electric beater or a wooden spoon to mix all the cream ingredients together thoroughly. #12 Taste and add more sweetness or spices if you prefer. #13 Spread the cream out evenly in the bottom of the mixing bowl. #14 Use a knife to cut right through the middle both horizontally and vertically. This will give you four portions of cream to apply to each layer. #15 Spread the cream on each layer evenly using a wide knife or palate knife. It is easier to spread the cream on each layer separately on a board and then construct the cake. #16 I like to let each layer of cream slightly hang over the edge of the cake. #17 Once the layers are assembled I gently run a knife all the way around the sides to smooth out. It gives the sides a smooth but rustic and pretty look. #18 Garnish the top of the cake with sliced banana and the chopped chocolate. Cake will last 3 days in the fridge. #19 Leave at room temperature 1 hour before serving.

Close More please! Xmas Cake w/ Banana & Dark Chocolate Ingredients ✓ 200g dried apricots – cut into small pieces ✓ 250g dried figs – cut into small pieces ✓ 250g prunes – cut into small pieces ✓ 400g sultanas ✓ 1 cup brandy* ✓ 300g room temperature butter ✓ 1 cup brown sugar ✓ 5 free range eggs ✓ 2 ripe All Good Bananas – peeled and mashed ✓ 2 tablespoon molasses ✓ Zest of 2 oranges ✓ 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon ✓ 1 teaspoon ground ginger ✓ ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg ✓ 3 cups wholemeal spelt flour ✓ 1 ½ cups almond meal ✓ 150g dark chocolate – roughly chopped ✓ To garnish: almonds i optional Method #1 Place the dried fruit and the brandy in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Place in a large bowl. Cover and leave to steep overnight in the fridge. Drain well before using. #2 Use a stand mixer or electric beaters to cream the butter and sugar until pale. Add the eggs one at a time (mixing between each addition), followed by the molasses, orange zest and banana. #3 Mix through the cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. #4 Use a wooden spoon to combine with the flour, almond meal, chocolate and the soaked fruit. #5 Preheat oven to 150 degrees Celsius. #6 Prepare a 20 x 20cm deep square cake tin using the instructions below. Spoon the cake batter into the tin and use a spatula to flatten the top. Decorate with almonds if desired. #7 Bake for 3 hours. A cake skewer should come out mostly clean. Wrap the cake in tinfoil while still warm to keep to keep moist. Keep it wrapped in the paper it was cooked in also. #8 Once a week you can poke a few holes in the top of the cake and spoon over 1-2 tablespoons of brandy if you like. This is called ‘feeding’ the cake. It will help keep it moist and the flavour to develop and mature. After each feeding, double wrap the cake in baking paper and then wrap tightly in tinfoil or store in an airtight cake tin. #9 Cooks tip: Prepare the tin by greasing it well (so that the baking paper will stick). Cut one square piece to line the bottom of the tin and then criss cross two large rectangles of baking paper (with a width the same as the tin), leaving the ends hanging over the tin. This will help remove the cake at the end. #10 *If you would prefer your cake to be free of alcohol, you can soak your fruit in a strong brew of black tea.
