How To make Barmbrack (Irish)
4 tb Sugar
3 tb Warm water
1 pk Active dry yeast
1 Egg, beaten
2 c All-purpose flour
2 tb Butter or margarine
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 To 1/2 cup milk

1 c Currants
1/2 c Chopped candied orange or
-lemon peel Vegetable oil 1 tb Cold water
Makes 1 loaf Combine 1 tablespoon of the sugar, warm water and yeast. Stir to dissolve yeast and let stand until bubbly, about 5 minutes. Blend egg into yeast mixture. Fit processor with steel blade. Measure flour, butter, 2 tablespoons of the remaining sugar and salt into work bowl. Process until mixed, about 15 seconds. Turn on processor and slowly add yeast mixture through feed tube to flour mixture. Process until blended, about 10 seconds. Turn on processor and very slowly drizzle just enough milk into flour mixture so dough forms a ball that cleans the sides of the bowl. Process until ball turns around bowl about 25 times. Turn off processor and let dough stand 1 to 2 minutes. Turn on processor and gradually drizzle in enough remaining milk to make dough soft, smooth and satiny but not sticky. Process until dough turns around bowl about 15 times. Turn dough onto lighyly greased surface. Knead raisins, currants and candied fruit peel into dough. Shape into smooth ball and place on greased cookie sheet. Flatten ball into a circle about 6 inches in diameter. Brush with oil and let stand in warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Heat oven to 350 F. Bake until bread sounds hollow when tapped, 40 - 50 minutes. Mix cold water with remaining 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Remove bread immediately from cookie sheet and place on wire rack. Brush with sugar-water mixture. Cool. Food Processor Bread Book From the collection of Jim Vorheis

_Barmbrack Loaf_
• 2 ½ cups (375g/13oz) Mixed Fruit.
• 10 fl oz (300ml) Cider.
• ⅔ cup (125g/4½ oz) Light Brown Sugar.
• ¼ cup + 1 tbsp (75g/2½ oz) Butter, melted.
• 2 Medium Eggs, beaten.
• Zest of 1 Orange.
• 1¾ cup + 2 tbsp (300g/10½ oz) Plain Flour.

_Cider Glaze_
• 2 tbsp White Sugar.
• 1 tbsp Cider.
*Oven Temperatures.*
Preheat the oven:
• Fan Oven: 160°C/320°F.
• Oven: 180°C/360°F.
• Gas Mark 4.
*Method.*
1. Place the mixed fruit, sugar and cider into a saucepan and heat until the sugar is melted. Just before it comes to a boil remove it from heat and allow it to cool completely or overnight if possible.
2. Preheat the oven to the above temperatures.
3. Pour the soaked fruit into a large bowl.
4. Add the melted butter, eggs, and the zest of one orange.
5. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.
6. Add the plain flour, baking powder, pinch of salt, mixed spice and cinnamon.
7. Mix until all the dry ingredients are well mixed in.
8. If using, wrap a ring in parchment paper and stir into the mixture.
9. Pour into a lined 2Ib loaf tin and flatten the top.
10. Bake for approximately 1 hour until well risen and golden, check with a skewer and if the skewer comes out clean it’s baked.
11. Make the cider glaze by adding sugar and cider to a saucepan and heating until the sugar is dissolved.
12. When baked, brush the top with the cider glaze and return to the oven for 3 minutes to dry the glaze.
13. Allow it to cool for 1 hour before removing it from the tin and placing it on a wire rack.
14. Serve with plenty of real butter slithered all over.
15. Mmm Scrummy!
*Storage.*
• Store wrapped in a dry, air-tight container in a cool cupboard, for up to a week.
Notes:
• The cider is optional.
• People use tea as an alternative to cider.
• The ring is also optional.
• Please warn people if you're putting the lucky ring into your cake! :-)
• Best served with butter.
• I prefer Barmbrack went it's not long out of the oven.
