Christmas orange bread

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Homemade Wonderslim (or
Prune babyfood)
3 Eggs equivalent of Egg
Substitute
½ cup Orange juice
4 teaspoons Baking powder
¾ teaspoon Salt
¼ cup Raisins
½ cup Chopped nuts
½ cup Sugar
½ cup Mashed banana
2½ cup Unbleached flour
1½ Mixed candied fruit

Directions

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, raisins, nuts, and candied fruit together. Combine and beat slightly the banana and orange juice; Set aside. Beat eggs into Wonderslim/prunes one at a time.

Alternately, add prune/egg mixture and banana/orange mixture to dry ingredients mixed with fruits and nuts. A wooden "fork" works well for the mixing. Pack into 9X5X3 loaf pan lightly sprayed with Pam and lined with wax paper. Bake at 350o for 1 hr. or until done. Cool 20 min. before removing wax paper and turning out on a rack. Cool before icing.

Icing: Mix powdered sugar into an egg white until smooth and easily spreadable. You want a thin icing. If you get it too thick, add a little skim milk. Dot icing with cut up candied (glace') cherries as desired.

After frosting is firm, wrap in aluminum foil and refrigerate.

Improves with freezing.

Notes: I usually double or triple the recipe. Otherwise, you'll have leftover icing (which is also good on cookies). You can divide the dough out into smaller pans; makes nice gifts.

I have modified the original posted recipe for Homemade Wonderslim by decreasing the lecithin:

3 c. water 1 12 oz. pk. prunes (cut-up type) 1 T. unbleached lecithin ¼ tsp. citric acid

Cover prunes with water and bring to a boil. Cool. Blend prunes, water, lecithin, and citric acid in blender until smooth. Pour in clean quart jar and refrigerate. Keeps up to 30 days. I pour mine into old jelly jars and freeze them. I use 1:1 amounts when substituting for oleo in recipes.
