Sunshine Fruits Recipes

Steps:

• Drain all canned fruits, reserving 1-1/2 cups of pineapple juice.
• Mix all canned fruits in large bowl.
• Mix reserved pineapple juice with pudding mix in medium saucepan.
• Cook over medium heat until boiling, stirring constantly.
• Let cool, pour over fruit and mix.
• Refrigerate overnight.
• Slice bananas and add just before serving.

Steps:

• In a saucepan combine the dried fruit and the two juices. Bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, cover and cool overnight.
• Next day: Grease a 20cm ring pan, paying particular attention to the centre area. Pre-heat oven to 180 deg Celsius.
• Sift together all dry ingredients (flour, milk powder, cocoa & mixed spice).
• Combine fruit mix, apple, pumpkin & carrot in a large bowl then stir in the egg whites.
• Stir in the dry ingredients.
• Spread the mixture into the prepared tin. Bake for 1.25 hours checking the cake after about 1 hour. (The cake may require a cover of some aluminium foil during the last stages, to stop the top from getting too brown.) Remove cake from oven, remove foil if used, and cool for 5 minutes. Carefully turn on to wire rack to cool.
