Serves :
1 1/2 cups (225g) self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
115g unsalted butter
115g sultanas
50g mixed peel
75g caster sugar
Grated zest of 1 orange
2 eggs
Directions
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Sift flour and baking powder into a large bowl, then rub in the butter until it resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in fruit, sugar and zest. Add eggs, stirring together, until you have a stiff dough.
Place walnut-sized mounds of the mixture on a greased baking tray, leaving space for spreading between each one. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
