Instructions
- Cut the prunes and apricots into pieces and put them in a bowl with the raisins.
- Pour the lukewarm tea and beer over the fruit, cover and leave to soak overnight.
- The next day, preheat the oven to 180 °C and butter a loaf tin.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon and salt.
- Add the egg and the fruit with its soaking liquid, then mix until you have a smooth dough.
- Pour into the tin and bake for 55 to 65 minutes, until a skewer comes out dry.
- Let it cool slightly before turning out, then wrap and keep for 2 days so it absorbs the flavours.
Variations and tips
Alcohol-free. Replace the beer with extra tea for a completely alcohol-free version.
