Aren’t mums the best? My Mum’s favourite morning snack for as long as I can remember has been a piece of healthy fruitcake, here is my gluten free version (paleo and vegan alternatives included)!
Recipe Type: GF, DF, RSF, V, Paleo

- 2 C water
- 2 t ground cinnamon
- 1 t vanilla extract
- 2 C flour of choice (Mum likes wholemeal wheat, I like Buckwheat. Psyllium husk and quinoa flakes also work)

Method:
- Boil the fruit in the water for 5 mins and allow to cool.
