Alaskan Stout Fruit Tea Bread
Ingredients
Breads, Cakes & Cookies
  • 8 ounces mixed dried fruit
  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 4 ounces candied lemon peel or orange peel or mixed
  • 2 tbsp candied ginger, minced
  • 1 bottle Alaskan Brewing Stout
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup yogurt, vanilla
  • 3 tbsp ginger or orange marmalade
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 cups flour, all-purpose
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
    •  

    Methods/steps
    Place the dried fruit, peel, ginger and raisins in a medium bowl and cover with Alaskan Stout. Marinate for 4 hours or overnight.
    Combine brown sugar, yogurt, marmalade, eggs and cinnamon. Add marinated fruit and beer mixture and stir well. Add flour 1 cup at a time, mixing well. Add salt and baking powder. Use a spoon to incorporate the dry ingredients thoroughly into the liquid ingredients.
    Pour batter into oiled loaf pans, being sure the fruite pieces are evenly distributed. Thump the pans to settle the batter and expel air bubbles. Bake in a medium (350 degree) oven for about 1 hour or until firm in the center.
    Cool well before slicing. Serve with cream cheese whipped with a few tablespoons of Alaskan Stout or with your favorite marmalade.
    This bread keeps well for several days. It toasts well. Several friends have compared it to fruit cake, but prefer the more clean fruit flavors with beer background to conventional fruit cakes. Note that except for egg yokes, this bread does not include any fats.

    Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim or handle of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to get service, resulting in today's phrase, Wet your whistle.
