Instructions
1. Chop your dried fruits and nuts and soak
them together with the raisins and spices
in rum (or orange juice with rum
flavor) overnight or for at least two hours
2.
Put the dry ingredients in a big bowl and
stir until there are no clumps. You can use 2 cups
of any gluten free flour blend instead of the flours I listed
3.

ingredients and stir with a spatula until the mixture is combined
4.
Now add the soaked dried fruits, raisins
and nuts and mix again with a spatula
5.
Line a mold with parchment paper or grease
it with a little bit of coconut oil. My mold measures 8
x 4 x 2.5 inches
6.
Bake in the oven at 390 degrees F (200
degrees C) for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out almost clean
(don't overcook it). Check after 40 minutes with a
toothpick
7.
Mix all ingredients for the chocolate glaze
with a whisk in a small bowl and pour it over the cake once it has cooled down. Store the cake in the fridge
