INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE BREAD
FOR THE FRANGIPANE
1. Sift flour into a large bowl, rub in the butter and stir in the sugar,
cinnamon and yeast. Gradually pour in the water and combine to form a soft
dough. Turn out on to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes
until the dough is smooth and elastic. Place in a clean bowl and cover with
oiled plastic film. Leave in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size.
2. Preheat the oven to 230C/450F/Gas 8. Knock back the dough and knead for
2-3 minutes until smooth. Roll out to an oval about 30x20 cm. Place on a
lightly oiled baking sheet.
3. To make the frangipane, mix together the ground almonds, lime rind and
juice, cream, vanilla essence, eggs and sugar. Spread over the dough.
Sprinkle over the redcurrants and dust heavily with icing sugar. Bake for
30 minutes until golden.
To freeze: wrap in foil and freeze for up to 2 months.
NOTES : This spiced bread, topped with almond and lime frangipane and
covered with juicy redcurrants, is delicious eaten hot, straight from the
oven. Preparation: 15 minutes Cooking: 30 minutes Serves 12 Per serving:
