Bara Brith
Bara brith, sometimes known as "speckled bread, is a traditional Welsh tea bread enriched with dried fruit and made with self-raising flour. It is traditionally flavored with tea, dried fruits, and mixed spices, and is served sliced and buttered at tea time, and some people in Wales also like to eat it with a nice piece of Caerphilly cheese! My recipe is so simple it takes just a matter of minutes to make!
