Title: Bairin Breac (Irish-Style Brown Bread)
Categories: Breads, Fruits
Yield: 2 servings
2 1/2 c Mixed dried fruit
2 c Strong brewed black tea
1 c + 1 TB dark brown sugar
2 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
3 1/2 c Cups A-P flour
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 ts Ground allspice
1 ts Ground cinnamon
1 ts Ground cloves
Salted butter; softened, for
- serving
In a medium bowl, mix together the dried fruit, tea and
brown sugar. Cover and set aside to soak at room
temperature overnight.
Set the oven (with one of its racks positioned in the
bottom third) @ 300ºF/150ºC.
Butter two 9" X 5" loaf tins, line each with parchment
paper, and set aside.
In a large bowl, stir together the eggs and the reserved
fruit-and-tea mixture. Into a second large bowl, sift
the flour, baking powder, allspice, cinnamon, and
cloves. Using a silicone spatula or wooden spoon, fold
the dry ingredients into the egg-and-fruit mixture just
until combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf
tins, then transfer to the oven and bake until the bread
is dark brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes
out, about 50 minutes.
Cool for a few minutes in the pans, then use the
parchment lining to lift the loaves out to finish
cooling on a wire rack. Serve warm, at room temperature,
or toasted with salted butter, if desired.
