Tastes like raisin bread. Yummy!

Ingredients :

• 3 1/2 cups sifted all
• purpose flour (1 Kings 4:22)
• 3 tsp baking powder (Galatians 5:9)
• 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon-1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp ground cloves
• 1 tsp ground allspice (1 Kings 10:2)
• 1 cup butter, softened (Judges 5:25)
• 2 cups firmly packed brown sugar (Jeremiah 6:20)-2 tbsp honey (Exodus 16:31)-6 eggs (Luke 11:12)-8 oz pitted dates, chopped (Deuteronomy 34:3)
• 2 cups raisins (1 Samuel 30:12)
• 1 cup walnuts, chopped (Song of Solomon 6:11)
• 1 cup milk (Judges 5:25)

Method :

1. Grease a 10x4 angel cake tube pan. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
2. Sift flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, & allspice. Set aside.
3. Beat butter, sugar, honey, & eggs in a large bowl with electric mixer until light & fluffy, about 3 minutes.
4. In another bowl, combie fruita & nuts. Sprinkle 1/4 cups of flour mixture over fruits & nuts. Stir until coated. Set aside.
5. Add remaining flour mixture alternately with the milk to the butter mixture, beating until smooth. Stir in fruits & nuts.
6. Spoon into prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour & 30 minutes or until the top Springs back when lightly touched with fingertip.
7. Cool in pan on wire rack 20 minutes. Loosen around edge & tube with knife. Turn out on rack. Cool completely. Wrap in plastic wrap. Cake slices best next day. But can slice same day.
8. Gluten-free option. Can use gluten-free flour, but will need to add 1 3/4 tsp xanthum gum.
9. Dairy free option. Can use soy milk instead of cows milk. Or really any kind of milk you prefer.
10. Egg free option. Can use an egg replacer. I have an egg powder that I just have to add water to before adding.
