1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup chopped, cooked, pitted prunes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease well and flour 9-inch (12 cup) bundt pan. In large bowl, combine all ingredients in the order listed; mix well. Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 1 hour.
