Step 1

Zest and juice the lemon. Add to a large pan with coconut oil, brown sugar, chopped dates, mixed fruit and 100ml of orange juice

Step 2

Bring to a gentle boil over a medium to low heat and stir. Lower the heat and simmer for five minutes or until the sugar has dissolved. Transfer the mixture into a large bowl and leave to cool for 30 mins

Step 3

Heat your oven to 150°C/130°C fan/gas 2. Line a deep 20 cm cake tin with baking parchment paper

Step 4

Mix the chia seeds with 150ml water. Leave to sit for 5 - 10 mins until gel-like and thick

Step 5

Add the chia seeds mix to your cake mixture, along with your remaining dry ingredients and a tablespoon of the marmalade

Step 6

Tip into your prepared tin and level the top with a spoon. Place in centre of the oven and bake for two to three hours or until the cake feels firm to the touch and is golden brown

Step 7

When the cake is fully baked, a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake should come out clean

Step 8

Remove cake from the oven and leave to cool in the tin. Poke holes in it with a skewer and spoon over 2 tbsp of rum, or the remaining orange juice. Cover with the remaining marmalade to create a sweet, sticky glaze

Step 9

Feed the cake for up to five days with 1-2 tbsp of rum until ready to remove from tin and decorate – or feel free to enjoy as a delicious snack straight away!
