English Easter Fruit Cake

• 1 3/4 cup self raising flour
• 1 None lemon, zested
• 1 None orange, zested
• 3 oz ground almonds
• 3 oz almonds, roughly chopped
• 1 1/3 cup raisins
• 3 oz currants
• 2 oz candied lemon peel
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ginger
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 8 oz butter, softened
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 5 medium eggs
• 1 lb marzipan

1. Preheat oven to 300u0b0F. In a large bowl, mix the flour, zest, ground almonds, chopped almonds, raisins, currants, lemon peel, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg.
2. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Stir in the eggs one at a time then combine with the other bowl. Mix until everything is well combined and transfer half to an 8 inch cake pan.
3. Roll 1/3 of the marzipan to an 8 inch circle, place on top of the mix in the cake pan, top with remaining mixture and bake for 2 hours. When baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan before turning out and cooling on a wire rack.
4. Roll another 1/3 of marzipan to an 8 inch circle and place on top of the cooled cake. Crimp the edges so they are wavy. With the remaining 1/3 of marzipan, divide into 12 and roll into balls and arrange on top of the cake at equal intervals. Place under a preheated broiler for 5 minutes to brown the marzipan and serve.
