Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, sugar, eggs, oil, chopped nuts, and baby food prunes.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well blended.
- Pour the batter into a greased Bundt pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool before removing from the pan and serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding vanilla extract or a dash of cinnamon to the batter. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour and add 1 tablespoon of baking powder. Chopped walnuts or pecans work well, but feel free to use any nuts you prefer. Ensure the baby food prunes are smooth for better consistency.
Serving Suggestions
This cake is delightful on its own, but you can serve it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat. Pair it with a cup of coffee or tea for a cozy afternoon snack. For a fun twist, consider serving it alongside Crispy Fried Carrots for a unique flavor combination.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of flour?
Yes, you can use all-purpose flour instead of self-rising flour by adding 1 tablespoon of baking powder to each cup of flour. This will help the cake rise properly while maintaining a similar texture.
What can I substitute for baby food prunes?
If you don't have baby food prunes, you can use unsweetened applesauce or mashed bananas as a substitute. Both alternatives will provide moisture and sweetness, although they will slightly alter the flavor of the cake.
How do I know when the cake is done baking?
The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. Keep an eye on it around the 50-minute mark to avoid overbaking.
