Honey Spice LoafInstructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2
Sift both flours, baking powder, salt, and all the spices into a large bowl.
3
Using a wooden spoon, stir in the chopped almonds and candied peel. Make a well in the center of the ingredients. Add the honey (in cold weather it is easier to measure and combine the honey if you stand the jar in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes first), egg yolks, and milk to the bowl and stir well to make a thick, heavy batter.
4
Scrape the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface. Bake for about 45 minutes, until golden and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Turn out onto a wire rack, remove the lining paper and let cool.
5
This recipe is best eaten within 5 days, or can be frozen for up to 1 month.
