Apple and fruit cake recipe - variations

 I have made variation of this cake: 2 large Gala apples, peeled and chopped as finely as possible Orange juice to soak apples in 3 cups all-purpose flour ½ tsp ground cinnamon ½ tsp ground nutmeg 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 1 cup sugar 1 cup Private Reserve extra virgin olive oil 2 large eggs ⅔ cup gold raisins, soaked in warm water for 15 minutes and then drained well Confectioner's sugar for dusting   substituted the all purpose flour with whole wheat  1 1/2 cup and I had chestnut flour, so 1 1/2 cups of chestnut flour. I used soaked raisins + cut up apricots, figs and dates as well yummy!   The above was posted on FB: https://www.themediterraneandish.com/italian-olive-oil-cake-apple/?fbclid=IwAR3mKKPQscxCWnqTZUTSoCSwwX7M-FYNoMcRsxbzLjeIpdejAhQdxTd-rcI
