Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup All Bran
1 cup Milk
1 cup Self raising flour
1/2 cup or 1 cup Soft brown sugar (depending on desired sweetness)
A standard loaf tin

Steps:

  • Grease and line your loaf tin, and preheat the oven to 170C/fan 150C/gas 5.
  • Use a cup to measure the ingredients (I use my small measuring jug featured in the photograph.)
  • Pour the All bran and milk into a bowl. Leave the All Bran to soak up the milk (about 5-10 mins.)
  • Add the self raising flour and sugar to your mixture and stir.
  • Cut up your dried fruit (if using prunes and apricots) and dust with some of the self raising flour. Add the fruit to your mixture and stir.
  • The mixture should be thick and gloopy, if it isn't you may wish to add a bit more milk. Transfer the mixture to your loaf tin and put in the oven for 1 hr -1 hr 30 mins. Check on the loaf after 1 hr by putting a knife through the middle, if it comes out clean the loaf is cooked, if not leave it in a little longer.
