Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dried apricots, raisins, cranberries, dates, walnuts, and almonds. Toss them together until evenly mixed.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.

  4. In another bowl, cream the melted butter and brown sugar together until well combined.

  5. Add the beaten eggs to the butter and sugar mixture, stirring well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  6. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a thick batter forms.

  7. Gently fold the dried fruit and nut mixture into the batter until evenly distributed.

  8. Using a spoon, fill each mini muffin cup with the batter, pressing it down gently to ensure it fills the cup.

  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  10. Allow the Fruit Cake Apricots to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
