One-bowl British fruitcake with dried fruit and brown sugar topping, perfect for tea time.
Ingredients:
  • 1.75 cups self-rising flour
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter
  • 1.25 cups dried mixed fruit
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon mixed spice
  • 5 tablespoons milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, or as needed
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and generously butter a 6-inch round cake pan.
  • In a bowl, combine flour with butter until it forms fine breadcrumbs. Mix in dried fruit, 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, and mixed spice. Stir well. Add milk and egg, mix until you have a soft, spoonable batter.
  • Gently spoon the batter into the pan, then sprinkle a layer of light brown sugar on top, pressing it down with the back of a spoon.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 60 to 75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
