Bara Brith

Speckled Bread

• 1 LB self-rising flour

• 6 TBS sugar

• 1 LB mixed, dried fruit

• 2 TBS marmalade

• 1/2 pint warm tea

• 1 tsp. mixed spice (cinnamon, cloves, coriander, cinnamon, ginger & nutmeg)

• 1 egg

In a large bowl, mix together the dried fruit, sugar and warm tea. Cover with plastic wrap and allow mixture set overnight. The next day, stir in flour, spice mix and marmalade to the fruit mixture. Beat the egg well, and mix in. Grease a loaf pan with non-stick spray, or line with grease-proof paper. Pour mixture into the loaf pan. Cook at 325-degrees F for about two hours (or 105 minutes). Cool on a rack.

 

Suggestions: Lather sliced bread with salty butter and serve with hot tea.
