Good budget stretcher to fill hungry kids. Once the fruit has soaked for a couple of hours, it does not take long to assemble the ingredients for cooking. I have left the fruit to soak over night in the fridge and cooked the loaf the next day.

I added a glaze to the top of the loaf before baking it. It gave it a beautiful golden brown crust.
