1 cup milk
1 cup dried mixed fruit
1 cup sugar
1 cup all-bran
1 cup flour
Directions
Soak first four ingredients together for at least 1 hour. Mix the
flour in well, and put into a greased lined loaf tin and bake for
approximately 1 hour at 180C (GM4 375F). The cake is delicious, and
served in slices with a little margarine on. If you wrap it in foil
and keep for a few days (if it lasts that long) the flavour gets even
better. The all-bran is available in the UK as Kellogg's AllBran.
It's sort of little sticks of high-fibre bran stuff. If you can't get
it in the US, I don't know what the equivalent is (not having been to
the US myself).

The History of Recipes
Academics have tracked the existance of recipes far back into the distant past, in fact as far back as early Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that is, these, ancient recipes were just primitive pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
As our culinary historical trip moves on a few more years we find some interesting books which appeared in the 1300s - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary titled `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, they are not about the spicy food that is served today, but instead accounts of the types of meals served to the rich and wealthy people of the time. By the arrival of the 1900s, cookbooks were greatly in demand mostly as a result of more people being able to read, leisure time and having more money. |
We hope you enjoy this Allbran Fruit Loaf recipe.
