All Bran, fruit and nut loaf

 This is a large loaf and slices into 18 generous slices.   I baked it in a bread tin with lid and removed the  lid 1/2 way through. 

I added cubes of  preserved ginger to the fruit mix and it lifted the loaf taste profile. I also added dried Apricots ,  Dates and dried Sour Cherries.
