Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Add the oil and butter to a small pan and heat gently for about a minute until the butter has melted, then remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile prepare a 22cm x 22cm tray bake tin by greasing with a little butter and lining with baking parchment.
- Sieve the self-raising flour into a large bowl and mix in the oil and melted butter mixture, caster sugar, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and vanilla extract all together until a smooth batter is formed.
- Place the prune halves in 3 rows on top of the sponge (you’ll have an odd half left).
- Place on the middle shelf of oven and bake for 35 minutes or until golden on the top and a skewer comes out of the centre of the tray bake clean.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.
- Once the cake has cooled, mix together the sieved icing sugar and water and drizzle over the cake.
- Leave to set and slice into squares to serve.
