Ingredients:

240g self-raising flour
90g butter
90g caster sugar
1 egg, beaten
90g mixed fruit
3 tbsp milk
pinch of salt

Method:

Cream together the butter and sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add the beaten egg a little at a time and combine well after each addition. Sift the flour and salt together and fold into the mixture. Add the fruit and combine before mixing-in just enough milk to give a soft dropping consistency to the batter.

Place the cake mix in a well-greased springform tin and put in an oven pre-heated to 190°C. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until the cake is lightly browned and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake emerges cleanly.

Allow to cool a little in the tin the transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
