Barmbrack
Barmbrack is a delicious traditional Irish fruitcake commonly enjoyed during Halloween. It’s made with a sweet yeast bread dough that is packed with dried fruits like raisins, currants, and sultanas. Sometimes, it also includes candied peel and spices for extra flavor. Barmbrack is often served sliced and buttered, making it a delightful treat to enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee.
Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed dried fruits (such as raisins, currants, sultanas)
- 1 cup strong black tea
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions
- The night before you plan to bake the Barmbrack, place the mixed dried fruits in a bowl and pour the hot black tea over them. Allow the fruits to soak in the tea overnight. This will plump them up and infuse them with flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the soaked dried fruits (including any remaining tea), brown sugar, flour, baking powder, mixed spice, and beaten egg. Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown and the cake should be firm to the touch.
- Once baked, remove the Barmbrack from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
- Serve the Barmbrack sliced and enjoy it as is, or spread some butter on each slice for an extra delicious treat.
