Ingredient
Food ration :
18 servingsCooking time :
60 mins
150 g
raisins
127 g
sorghum flour
60 g
millet flour
1 tsp
xanthan gum
2 tsp
ground cinnamon
300 ml
warm water
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Put the raisins in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Set aside overnight
* Step 2
Preheat the oven to gas 4 / 180C / 350F and line a loaf tin with parchment paper and spray lightly with oil then dust with flour
* Step 3
Put the flours, starch, xanthan gum, yeast, salt and spices in a bowl and whisk together well
* Step 4
Beat in the warm water, melted margarine, syrup and egg replacer mixture until you form a smooth batter, cake batter consistency
* Step 5
Drain the raisins well then stir into the batter
* Step 6
Pour the batter into the loaf tin and smooth the top with the back of a wet spoon
* Step 7
Bake for 45 - 55 minutes until golden and risen. If you remove the tin and tap the bottom of the loaf it should sound hollow when done. If the bottom of the loaf is still a bit damp after you remove the tin, put it back in the tin upsides down and bake a further 5 - 10 minutes. For a crusty loaf, return to the oven without the tin and bake a further 10 minutes
* Step 8
Rub the entire loaf with extra margarine to soften the crust as it cools then let cool on a wire rack
* Step 9
Slice when fully cooled. Wrap individual slices in clingfilm then again in foil to freeze for another day. Defrost then toast
* Step 10
Tastes lovely toasted
* Step 11
You can replace the individual flours with a store pre-mixed gluten-free flour blend but you'll need to adjust the liquid added. Use the raisin water if you need to add extra or some orange juice to kick up the flavour a bit works well. The batter should be like cake batter
* Step 12
Substitutions for Bara Brith / Welsh Fruit Cake - use 300g mixed fruit in place of raisins, replace golden syrup with 100g soft brown sugar, use 350ml brewed tea in place of warm water and soak mixed fruit in that - drain tea straight into batter and mix before adding the fruit in. Glaze with warm runny honey
