Ingredients
 

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup oil
  • ¼ cup walnut (roughly chopped)
  • ¼ cup walnut (roughly powdered)
  • ¼ cup cashew (roughly powdered)
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup dried fruits (I used raisins and cranberries)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Brush some oil in a loaf pan and dust it with some flour. Pre heat the oven to 350F.
  • Whisk all the wet ingredients (egg, sugar, oil) in one bowl and dry ingredients (powdered cashew and powdered walnut, flour, baking powder and coffee) in a separate bowl.
  • Pour mixed dry ingredients to the wet ingredients bowl and whisk. Add dried fruits, chopped walnut, vanilla extract and give it one more whisk.
  • Pour batter in the loaf pan and bake it at 350F for 50 minutes. Poke a knife in the center and if it comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let it cool down for few minutes before you take it out of the pan.

Notes

Every oven works differently. So please keep an eye and don’t depend on the time mentioned here.
If the cake turns too brown on top and the cake is not yet baked through, leave the oven partially open and continue baking until it’s baked completely.
