1932 Yorkshire SPICE CAKE Recipe
1932 Yorkshire Spice Cake Recipe
Welcome Friends! Welcome to Sunday morning in our old cook book series. We're going to do yet another recipe out of this Five Roses Flour Cookbook, and this time around we're going to do something called a Yorkshire Spice Cake. It's in the Christmas cake section, and I have never come across this cake before, so I'm interested to find out how it works out. One of the interesting things about this Yorkshire spice cake is that it only has one spice in it, and that is nutmeg, so it'll be interesting to see what the flavour is with only one spice.
Ingredients:
3½ cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¼ - 3/4 nutmeg grated
3 cups currants
1 cup raisins
¾ cup mixed chopped peel
¾ cup shortening (pure Lard)
1½ cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1 cup sweet milk
Method:
Preheat oven to 325ºF
Cream the lard until light and fluffy, then cream in the brown sugar.
In a bowl mix the currants, raisins and a couple tablespoons of the flour.
In another bowl mix together the dry ingredients; flour, salt, baking powder, nutmeg.
Mix the eggs into the creamed sugar and lard, one at a time.
Slowly alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk to the creamed lard, sugar and eggs.
Mix in the currants and raisins.
Scrape half the batter into a 9x9” pan lined with parchment.
Spread half the candied peel on top.
Spread the remainder of the batter in the pan and top with the remaining peel.
Bake for just over 1 hour or until a tester comes out clean - there is a real risk of over baking and ending up with a dry cake.

TRADITIONAL IRISH BARMBRACK RECIPE| IRISH TEA BREAD| BÁIRÍN BREAC
#Báirínbreac also known as #barmbrack or #IrishTeaBread is a beautiful fruit loaf packed full of Irish history and tradition. It is a quick loaf to whip together loaded with dried sultanas and raisins and it is typically made at Halloween time. The name means 'speckled loaf' as Gaeilge (in Irish) and you can see why from the amazing speckling of the fruit throughout the loaf. Happy Autumn baking!

YORKSHIRE PARKIN | Sticky Ginger Parkin | British Recipe #gingercake #yorkshireparkin #gingerparkin
This bold and robust ginger parkin is made the traditional Yorkshire way, with steel cut oats, ginger pieces, and black treacle (molasses) that produce this deliciously sticky and chewy cake.
Unlike most everyday baking recipes, this is unusual in that the flavors and texture improve with time...so be prepared to bake this and then WAIT around 3 days before it reaches peak state!
The Parkin has its roots in both Yorkshire and Lancashire. The Yorkshire Parkin recipe historically uses black treacle/molasses and the Lancashire version is lighter and uses golden syrup. In this recipe, I have opted to use both although it is heavier on the molasses.
INGREDIENTS
1½ cups steel cut oats (pulsed in food processor)
¾ cup all purpose/plain flour
1½ teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ginger powder
1 teaspoon all spice
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup golden syrup or corn syrup
⅔ cup black treacle or molasses
¾ cup brown sugar
½ cup butter
¼ cup crystallized ginger, finely chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons milk
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease an 8” x 8” baking tin.
2. Measure out the steel cut oats and put through a food processor to break down. The oats should not be a flour and some chunks should remain.
3. Add all the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl and combine: flour, oats, ginger, nutmeg, all spice, salt, and baking powder.
4. In a small saucepan add in butter, brown sugar, black treacle/molasses, golden syrup/corn syrup. Stir until the butter and sugar have melted, making sure not to boil. Then remove from the heat and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
5. Pour the warm sugar mixture into the dry ingredients, and stir until combined. Then stir in the crystallized ginger pieces, the egg, and milk.
6. Pour the batter into the baking tin and bake in the oven for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Use a toothpick to check if it is fully baked - it is ready if it comes out clean. Allow the Parkin to cool in the baking tin for a few minutes.
7. Then turn it face down onto a cutting board, slide the baking tin out, and remove the parchment paper. Allow the parkin to cool for 10-15 minutes before cutting into equal sized squares.
Store in an airtight container and ALLOW IT TO REST FOR 2-3 DAYS.
It takes this time for the flavor and sticky texture to fully develop...it WILL be worth the wait so be patient!
