Beat together the butter, sugar and grated rinds until light and then add the egg little by little until, adding a little flour towards the end. 5. Fold in the rest of the flour and then add the fruit 6. Spoon into the tin and smooth the top. (the mixture will be quite stiff). 7. Bake at 170C for about 2 hours 30 minutes. Test with a skewer. 8.
