Through the years, I've shown you many versions of the traditional Greek Vassilopita (New Years cake), either made like a cake or a bread. It is true that there are many regional variations around Greece.
This time, I will show you another Vassilopita cake, filled with dried fruits, honey, orange, nuts and spices.
It's an easy recipe to follow, but do note a couple secrets in my method.
Honestly this cake could stand as a beautifully moist Christmas Cake (minus the coin) bursting with all the aromas of the Holiday Season!
Let's see together how to prepare this special cake.
Suitable for lacto-ovo vegetarians.
