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

Irish Barmbrack #shorts
Barmbrack is a traditional Irish fruitcake which is also known as tea cake depending on the time of year that you’re eating it! This recipe makes a really moist, fruit loaf which is packed with flavour from mixed spice and dried fruit.
Time: 60 mins + soaking time
Serves: 8

375g packet of fruit mix
250ml cold tea
50ml of whiskey
225g plain flour
2 tsps of baking powder
125g light brown sugar
1 large egg
1/2 tsp of mixed spice
A ring to place inside
1. Place the fruit mix in a bowl and pour over the whiskey and cold tea. Allow to soak up the liquid overnight.
2. Preheat the oven to 170˚C/327°/Gas Mark 3 and grease and line a 900g loaf tin. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and mixed spice in a mixing bowl. Make a well and break in the egg, using a wooden spoon, mix the egg with the dry ingredients. Add a little bit of the liquid the fruit mix is sitting in and mix it through. You may not need all the liquid, you are looking for a wet dough. Then stir through the fruit mix until everything is thoroughly combined.
3. Add in the ring and stir through. Spoon the wet dough into the lined loaf tin and place in the oven on the middle shelf and bake for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before removing from the loaf tin and placing on wire rack.
4. Cover in cling wrap and tin foil and allow to sit for 1-2 days before cutting into it. If you don’t have time to wait its fine eaten straight away! Serve in slices spread with a little butter and good cuppa!
Barm Brack (Barmbrack) - Irish Tea Loaf
Barm Brack, traditionally eaten at Halloween is a lovely fruity loaf cake. I find it ideal at any time, with tea and sometimes with butter spread on it. As the spices and fruit can be changed to suit what may be in the cupboard this is great for these trying times.
