This cake is light, sweet and very versatile. Use whatever dried fruit you have on hand and whatever whole grain flour you prefer. I use Kamut in this cake because it brings a golden, mild, buttery flavor perfect for an afternoon snack or a simple dessert with fresh fruit or real whipped cream.
The perfect cake to use from your Real Food Storage plan, it is dairy-free and egg-free and relies solely on pantry goods.
