Time 2h

Yield Cuts into 9 squares

Number Of Ingredients 10

500g white or wholemeal bread
500g/1lb 2oz mixed dried fruit
85g mixed peel
1½ tbsp mixed spice
600ml milk
2 large eggs, beaten
140g light muscovado sugar
zest 1 lemon (optional)
100g butter, melted
2 tbsp demerara sugar

Steps:

  • Tear 500g white or wholemeal bread into a large mixing bowl and add 500g mixed dried fruit, 85g mixed peel and 1 ½ tbsp mixed spice.
  • Pour in 600ml milk, then stir or scrunch through your fingers to mix everything well and completely break up the bread.
  • Add 2 beaten large eggs, 140g light muscovado sugar and zest of 1 lemon, if using. Stir well, then set aside for 15 mins to soak.
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line the base of a 20cm non-stick square cake tin (not one with a loose base).
  • Stir the melted butter into the pudding mixture, tip into the tin, then scatter with demerara.
  • Bake for 1½ hrs until firm and golden, covering with foil if it starts to brown too much. Turn out of the tin and strip off the paper. Cut into squares and serve warm.
