  • 8 ounces flour
  • 2 level teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 ounces margarine
  • 2 ounces sugar
  • ½ teaspoon grated lemon rind
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 ounce dried fruit
  • Milk

  2. Add the sugar, lemon rind and fruit.
  3. Mix to a stiff consistency with beaten eggs and a little milk.
  4. Place in heaps on a greased baking tray and bake in a 450 degree Fahrenheit oven for about 25 minutes.
