Hi everyone. My name is Kat and I am from Poland.

This recipe is tweaked to what I had at home. 

Ingredients

  • 500g bread
  • 300g ( that’s all I had but can use more) mixed dried fruit and peel from orange and lemon, soaked in some juice to plump it up
  • 100ml strong dark tea
  • 2 tbsp mixed spice
  • 2 tsps cinnamon
  • 2 tsps nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 100g brown sugar
  • 100g of butter, melted
  • About 200 ml milk to make texture I liked
  • 2 tbsp demerara sugar

Method

  • Tear the bread into a large mixing bowl and add the soaked fruit, peel and spice
  • Pour in the milk, add eggs, sugar,tea and melted butter . Stir well, then set aside to soak. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
  • I just lined 20cm tin with paper. Then put mixture in the tin and sprinkle with sugar on top.
  • Bake for 1½ hrs until firm and golden. Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
  • Cover with foil if starts going dark too much (I baked almost 2h and never covered it)

  1. just like my Lancashire Mum used to make ! many a time dashing in as a kid ( over 60 yrs ago ) and getting a slice to ” keep me on ” until tea time. had a Jamaican friend who did similar but with shredded coconut glace cherries and subtle spices. tried to replicate few years ago but i think the bread is different now.
