Irish Barmbrack Cakes For Halloween Recipes
IRISH BARMBRACK
Barmbrack is a traditional Irish cake eaten on holidays. After pouring into the prepared pan, it is tradition to add objects to the barmbrack which symbolize certain things for the person who receives each in their slice. Thoroughly clean objects before adding them to the barmbrack. These objects can be pressed into the bottom of the loaf after baking instead: coin-wealth or good fortune; ring-will marry within the year; bean-poverty; pea-will not marry within the year; matchstick-unhappy marriage; thimble-single for life.

IRISH BARMBRACK CAKES FOR HALLOWEEN
We love to try recipes from other cultures and this Irish Barmbrack Cake smelled amazing while in the oven. After a little research, we learned that some versions of this are cake-like while others are more like bread. But both are filled with tons of dried fruit and spices. The texture of this recipe is tender, soft, and similar to bread. It's jam-packed with raisins that have been soaked in black tea. A traditional Irish bread that would be fun to make for Halloween with kids. We love it dusted with powdered sugar and spread with jam.

Steps:
- Soak dried fruits in tea overnight (or a few hours if not enough time).
- Heat milk until warm. Sprinkle yeast and teaspoon granulated sugar over top and stir. Let sit in a warm place for about 15 minutes, until foamy.
- Stir together the flour, salt, spices, and brown sugar in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, and add egg, yeast mixture, and butter. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
- Drain fruit well, then add to the dough. This should produce a smooth dough. If it's too gooey, add more flour.
- Knead dough on a floured board for about 5-10 minutes. The dough should be smooth, but just a little sticky.
- Place dough in your greased cake or loaf pan, cover with a cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes, until doubled.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake barmbrack 30 minutes.
- Remove bread from the pan, flip it upside down, return it to the pan, and bake 20 minutes more.
- Bread is done cooking it sounds hollow when tapped on the sides. Cool on a rack before serving.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar or serve with butter and jam.
