A fun and easy way to use up the leftover fruit mash from homemade wine making.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups of fruit mash from wine making
  • 1 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract (optional)
  • 2 cups flour (a gluten free blend such as Namaste will work)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a nine inch round, nine inch square or 11×7 pan by greasing, flouring and putting a piece of parchment paper in the bottom. Spread fruit mash into bottom of pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Mix in egg, vanilla and lemon extract (if desired).
  3. Mix flour, salt and baking powder in a small bowl. Add dry ingredients to butter mix, alternating with milk, stirring well after each addition, until all ingredients have been added to the batter.
  4. Pour batter over fruit in pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until center tests clean with a toothpick. (Gluten free flour blends will likely require at least 10-15 minutes additional baking time.)
