The traditional way to make fruit cake isn't that healthy - it's packed with sugar and carbs, and is meant to be more of a holiday treat than something healthy to enjoy regularly. But we made a few swaps to this fruitcake recipe to keep all of the deliciousness of the original version, but make it much healthier for you! Here are some of the changes we made to this healthy fruit cake: 1) No marzipan: Christmas fruit cake is usually covered in some sort of jam and then a layer of marzipan, but you actually don't need it to enjoy a sweet loaf cake! 2) Less sugar: Each huge slice has only 6 grams of added sugar (the rest comes from the fruit), which is less than your average holiday cake! 3) Whole wheat flour: Instead of all purpose flour, for more fiber and healthy whole grains.
