2/3 pint hot tea
90 gms (3 oz.) soft brown sugar
375 gms (12 oz.) self-raising wholemeal flour
1 tsp. mixed spice
1 large egg

 

Soak the dried fruit in the hot tea and leave overnight.

Next day, set oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and line a loaf tin.

Strain liquid from fruit and reserve liquid.

Mix fruit with dry ingredients in bowl, adding liquid until mixture is a soft dropping consistency. Pour into tin.

Bake for 45 to 55 minutes until risen and firm to the touch.

Serve sliced and buttered.

Note:
This is almost the same as the Irish Barm Brack. There is another Welsh version which uses shortening and yeast but this one is easier and is often used.
