For a richer flavor, consider browning the butter before adding it to the flour. Let it cool slightly before incorporating it into the dry ingredients. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Feel free to substitute other dried fruits for the raisins, such as dried cranberries or chopped dates. Store the cooled cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large bowl, place the flour. Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the cinnamon and nutmeg. (10 minutes)
03
StepAdd the walnuts, raisins, and grated apple to the flour mixture. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lime zest, eggs, and pineapple juice. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (10 minutes)
04
StepSpoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. (2 minutes)
05
StepBake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes (75 minutes), or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If the top of the cake begins to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with foil during the last 20 minutes of baking.
06
StepLet the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)
