Submitted by: admin on April 10, 2020

12 servings

Ingredients

1 cup water
4 cups candied mixed fruit
1 cup white sugar
¾ cup butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon mixed spice
2 eggs, beaten

Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan, and line with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

Step 2
Combine the water, mixed fruit, sugar and butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, and boil gently for about 10 minutes. Sift the flour, baking soda and mixed spice into a large bowl. Pour in the boiled mixture, and stir until well blended. Mix in the eggs. Pour into the greased loaf pan.

Step 3
Bake for 90 minutes in the preheated oven, until a skewer or knife inserted into the top comes out clean. Cool cake in the pan for at least 10 minutes before removing.
