I don't usually like fruit cake but this sounded so yummy I just had to give it a try. I wasn't disappointed either this is great. I halved the recipe & got one large loaf and 2 small loaves out of it. I used sultanas, pineapple & apricot for the fruit & almonds for the nuts as that's what I had on hand. The banana gives the cake a nice flavour & because of all the good things in it I needn't feel too guilty about eating it. This one I will make again. Thanks for posting!
