BETH’S FABULOUS FIG CAKE
Serves 8-10
INGREDIENTS:
3 eggs
1 cup (240ml) of vegetable oil
½ cup (100g) sugar
½ cup(90g) light brown sugar
½ cup (120ml) water
1 ½ tsp (7.5ml) vanilla extract
2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
2 tsp (10ml) baking powder
¾ tsp (3.75ml) salt
1 ¼ tsp (6.75ml) ground cardamom
1/3 cup (50g) crystalized ginger, diced
5-10 fresh figs (depending on size) sliced vertically (or sliced pears or sliced apples would be great too!)
Crumble:
½ cup (60g) all-purpose flour
½ tsp (2.5ml) baking powder
pinch of salt
2 tbsp (25g) white sugar
2 tbsp (23g) brown sugar
¼ tsp (1.25ml) cinnamon
5 tbsp (75ml) melted butter
1/2 cup (75g) chopped walnuts
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 350F (175C)
Spray a 9” cheesecake pan with baking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl combine eggs, oil, sugars, water and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine and set aside.
In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and cardamom. Whisk to combine.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk slowly to combine. Stir in the candied ginger.
Pour cake batter into pan, arrange figs cut side up, in a circle around the cake. Set aside.
To make crumble, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugars and cinnamon until combined. Add the melted butter and stir with a fork until a crumble forms. Then stir in the walnuts.
Sprinkle crumble on top of figs and cake, evenly distributed.
Bake cake for 50 mins-1 hour, or until a skewer comes out clean. If top starts to brown too quickly cover with foil until fully baked through. Allow to cool and serve for tea time or for Sunday brunch!
NOTE: This cake reheats beautifully! Just wrap tightly in foil and refrigerate, then place in oven (covered in the foil) and bake at 350F for 20 mins or until warmed through.
