Ingredients

	For the cake:
125 ml	honey
125 ml	vegetable oil
2 medium	eggs, beaten
½ tsp	vanilla extract
75 g	spelt or wholemeal flour
150 g	plain flour
1 tsp	baking soda
¼ tsp	salt
	For the topping:
125 ml	maple syrup, good quality only
75 g	raisins or sultanas
75 g	dried apricots, chopped
75 g	dried pineapple, finely chopped
2 tbsp	sesame seeds
½ tsp	vanilla extract
½ tsp	ground cinnamon
½ tsp	ground nutmeg
4 tbsp	plain flour
35 g	almonds, finely chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 4, 180ºC, 350ºF. Thoroughly grease a 9×9-inch, 22cm square baking dish or equivalent.

In a bowl, whisk together the honey, oil, eggs and vanilla.

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, soda, and salt and mix them slowly into the liquid ingredients until thoroughly blended. Spread evenly into the tin and bake for 15 minutes.

In the meantime, mix together all the topping ingredients until well distributed. Carefully place on top of the part-cooked cake. It is likely that the centre of the cake may sink, especially under the weight of the topping but it will come back.

Return the cake to the oven for a further 20 minutes or until the topping is lightly browned and the cake feels firm.

Cool completely in the tin. Slice when quite cold, as slices about ¾-inch, 18-20mm thick and then divide each slice to serve two persons.
