Ingredients

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup of lard

1 cup brown sugar

4 organic eggs

1 1/4 cups (whole grain) of “whole grain” flour

1 1/4 cups self-rising flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 tablespoon molasses

2 pounds of dried fruit

1 lemon in juice

1 orange juice

1/4 cup sherry

1 tablespoon brandy

1 tablespoon Almond milk

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

In a bowl, with a spatula, beat the butter and shortening together until they become a cream.

Add the sugar and continue creaming. Add the eggs little by little and mix until well incorporated.

Then add each ingredient; one at a time and mix.

Grease and flour a bread pan with butter and sprinkle with flour so that the bread does not stick to it; and pour the mixture into the previously greased mold.

Bake for about 20 minutes.

Let cool in the same mold. Then take it out and wrap it in plastic and let it marinate for a few days.
