Method

  • 1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
  • 2. Mix all the ingredients except the dried fruit together. You can do this in a food processor or by hand in a bowl.
  • 3. When they're all thoroughly mixed, add the dried fruit. Spoon the mixture into a 1kg/2lb non-stick loaf tin, spread out evenly and bake for one and a half hours. The loaf is done when a skewer pushed into its middle comes out clean.
  • 4. Cool on a wire rack, then slice before serving
  • 5. Serve thickly sliced with a dusting of icing sugar, or wrap in foil and warm gently in the oven before slicing and serving with fresh bananas for an ideal weekend breakfast.

    • Very nice flavour, eating a piece now! Only cooked mine for 1hr 15mins and it was well done so ovens may vary.
