Pop all of these ingredients altogether, into a saucepan. Bring it up to high heat, and down to low heat after 5 minutes, for 45mins to 1 hour until it’s a delicious goopy fruit mince mix (or into the thermomix on speed 2, 40mins, lid on, 100C checking liquid at 20 mins and if getting dry add 1/4 cup more water))

When the mince is 5 minutes from being done, get going on the cake mix, assembling all the ingredients and starting to blend. NOTE: Do not do this far in advance. Coconut flour will continue to absorb liquid, and if you don’t mix it and get it into the oven, you’ll get a dry cake result. No thanks!

Preheat the oven and prepare a standard sized cake tin, lined with greaseproof paper and coconut oil / butter.

Whip the eggs and honey / maple together for a minute in a Kenwood or Kitchen aid type cake mixer, or in a bowl with hand beaters, or in the thermomix / MyCook premium with butterfly attachment on, speed 7, 40 seconds. It should look light in colour and have lots of bubbles on top.

Then add the coconut oil, coconut flour, baking powder (if using) , salt and mix a further 10 seconds until well combined. (speed 5 is perfect for this job)

NOTE: Over mixing will produce a dry batter because of the coconut flour absorption factor.

Then fold through the 1.5 cups fruit mince: - Using the Thermomix / MyCook: Speed 2, 20 seconds - Using the KitchenAid / Kenwood: Swap to the dough hook attachment and mix for 20 seconds, level 4 - If you used hand beaters for the first half of the cake mixing, fold the mince in by hand.

Pour your mix into the cake tin and pop it into the oven.

Cook for 35-40 minutes on 180C / 350F or until skewer comes out clean from the middle.

OPTIONAL: To get this glossy top look, melt 1 tbsp honey / maple into 3 tbsp boiling water and paint over the cake with a pastry brush. This was the perfect job for my little man. So cute. He took it very seriously <3
