Ingredients

  • ½ cup sultanas
  • ½ cup raisins
  • 70 grams slivered almonds toasted
  • ½ cup chopped dried apricots
  • ½ cup halved glace cherries
  • 2 tbsp chopped crystallised ginger
  • 3 tbsp mixed peel

Method

  1. Line a 18cm x 28cm slice tin with baking paper.

  3. Spread evenly over the base of the tin. Cook at 180°C for 18-20 minutes or until golden and cooked through. The slice continues to harden on cooling. Allow to cool in the tin.
