Recipe Ingredients
700g Flour (plain)
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1.5 tablespoons Ground Nutmeg
2 tablespoons Baking Powder
1.5 teaspoons Mixed Spice
3 tablespoons Milk
2 large Eggs
135g Raisins
135g Sultanas
350g Caster Sugar
350g Butter
•Rub margarine into flour.
•Add sugar, fruit & egg (shell removed).
•Bake.
•Takes approximately: 10 min work, 20 min cooking,
1.Turn on oven to warm up to 200°C (Gas Mark 6).
2.Rub the 100 g of margarine into the 200 g of flour in mixing bowl (i.e. repeatedly pick up handfuls of the mix & use thumbs to smear it out across fingers) until the mix looks like breadcrumbs.
3.Wash hands (before everything else in the kitchen gets greasy).
4.Mix in all the other ingredients (75 g moist brown sugar, 200 g self raising flour & an egg (minus shell)).
5.Line baking tray with greaseproof paper.
6.Put balls (about 4 cm diameter) of the mix on the tray.
7.Bake 15 to 25 min (ready when inside no longer looks raw & damp &/or a skewer pushed into a cake does not come out with stuck on dough).
8.Allow to cool until hard.
if you don't have one of the ingredients, try substituting (with something safe to eat) and see what the result is; it could well be an improvement!
