Gingerbread Almond Wreath

What you’ll need…

250g butter, diced and softened

1¼ cups brown sugar

4 extra large eggs

2 cups SUNBEAM Almond Meal

1 cup desiccated coconut

½ tsp bicarbonate of soda

1 tbsp ground ginger

2 tsp mixed spice

1 cup SUNBEAM Currants

½ cup SUNBEAM Sultanas

¼ cup SUNBEAM Flaked Almonds

Rosemary sprigs and raspberries, for serving

Pre-heat oven to 170°C (150°C fan-forced). Lightly grease and line a 22cm ring tin.
Beat the butter and sugar until pale and creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition.
Stir in the almond meal, coconut, bi-carb and spices. Mix well, then stir in the currants and sultanas. Pour into prepared pan and scatter the top with flaked almonds. Bake for 55-60 minutes until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Serve on a platter surrounded by fresh rosemary sprigs and fill the cavity with raspberries.
