I was looking for a non-traditional fruitcake recipe that uses dried fruits instead of candied. I found this at allrecipes and am making it today
Irish Barmbrack
Ingredients: 2 1/2 cups chopped dried mixed fruit 1 1/2 cups hot brewed tea 2 1/2 cups flour 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 egg 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/4 cup lemon marmalade 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
Directions: 1. Soak the dried fruit in the hot tea for 2 hours, then drain and gently squeeze out excess tea. 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 inch Bundt pan. Stir together the flour cinnamon, nutmeg, and baking soda; set aside. 3. Beat the egg, sugar, marmalade, orange zest, and tea-soaked fruit until well combined. Gently fold in the flour until just combined, then pour into the prepared Bundt pan. 4. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until the top of the cake springs back when lightly pressed. Allow to cool in the pan for 2 hours before removing. Continue to cool to room temperature on a wire rack. Press the objects of choice into the cake through the bottom before serving.

1. I'm not a big fan of fruitcake, but this looks good! |
|
And I don't think I've ever seen a recipe that calls for brewed tea. Interesting. Let us know how it turns out.
