Congrats on making the leap to baking your own fruitcake, David! We haven't tried baking Everyone's Favorite Fruitcake in a springform pan, but we suspect that no matter which size pan you use, you're going to have more batter than you can fit in there. You may have to experiment a bit with exactly how much of the batter to use, taking care not to fill your springform pan any higher than 3/4" from the top, and using any excess batter to make a small loaf or muffins. Bake time too will take a little experimentation, so we'd check first around 30 minutes. Alternatively, if you're looking for more of a layer cake, you might also consider tour recipe for layered fruitcake, which is baked in 2 x 8" pans. Mollie@KAF
