Method
1
Pour boiling water over the dried fruits and let them sit for 5-10 minutes. Drain the water, let them cool, and chop any large pieces. Pour alcohol over them and let soak for 24 hours.
2
Beat the room-temperature butter with sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs and beat well again. Once smooth, fold in the sifted dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, spices) and orange zest. Mix gently by hand until just combined.
3
Fold the soaked dried fruits into the batter and mix well.
4
Transfer to a loaf pan and bake at 170°C (340°F) for about 60 minutes.
