BARA BRITH
A sweet, yeast-less Welsh bread studded with dried fruit. I generally soak my raisins in Irish breakfast tea, but feel free to experiment with flavors.

Steps:
- Tip the fruit into a bowl with the sugar and orange zest. Pour over the tea, stir everything together and leave to soak overnight.
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease and line the base and short sides of a 900g/loaf tin with 1 strip of baking parchment. Tip the flour and spice into a bowl, and beat in the fruit and soaking liquid. Add the egg, followed by the butter. Beat until you have a well-combined, stiff batter, then tip into the prepared loaf tin. Bake for 1¼ hrs, covering with foil or parchment if the top starts to get too dark. Check with a skewer - if it doesn't come out clean, give it another 5-10 mins in the oven.
- Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove and leave to cool completely. Serve sliced and buttered, if you like.

Pour the hot tea over the fruit, stir, cover and let sit overnight.Depending on how dry or moist your raisins/currants were to begin with they will have absorbed nearly all of the liquid. If there is some liquid remaining reserve about 2 or 3 tablespoons of it to brush on top of the finished bread.

Add the fruits and their juices (except for the juice you reserved) along with all remaining ingredients.
