MEMORIES OF MACEDONIA ~ FANURIJA (Cake to Fulfil Wishes)

Fanurija is a sweet type of bread or cake that is made typically on the 9th of September to honour St. Fanurij the martyr if you have lost something or wish for something. The cake is usually made with the 9 ingredients and sliced in 9 pieces to be shared with 9 families or neighbours or friends.
The slightly spicy cake with orange flavour is so delicious it makes for a light cake perfect with tea or coffee.

This looks simply amazing my friend! 😁 I just love the combination of orange flavors with the raisins - I can imagine it has such a wonderful, delicate flavor! 💗 You know me, I also just adore recipes like this - rich with so much history and tradition. Thank you for sharing such a treasure!

[@GoranMak]

Thanks my friend .... I hope you give it a try. Stay safe!

[@yoyomax12]

I liked hearing the history behind this cake. Black raisins? All we have here are Sultana and golden. I reminds me a bit of a Christmas cake.

[@GoranMak]

Like I mention, you can you use any type of raisins. Ya, you'd think so but the orange flavour really shines and brightens it up.

[@pcharliep61]

Looks good, I like the addition of the Fanta. will give it a try soon. cheers

[@GoranMak]

Thanks buddy. You'll love it, trust me!

[@pcharliep61]

Hi, I baked one yesterday and it is good :) not to sweet. I used Oranges as I have some on the tree and coconut oil as I had a jar that was getting a little long in the tooth and needed to be used up. cheers

Hi Canuk, I love your recipes. However I couldn't understand what you put in the pan just before pouring in the batter. What is it?

[@GoranMak]
