Comment préparer Mrs Allingham's Light Fruitcake

Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, toss 1 cup all-purpose flour with 2 cups mixed dried fruit (raisins, currants, cranberries, etc.).
Gradually beat the remaining 2 cups all-purpose flour into the butter/egg mixture until just combined.
Add the juice and zest of 1 large lemon.
Gently fold in the fruit and flour mixture until evenly distributed. Do not overmix.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 2 ½ to 3 hours, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the fruitcake cool completely in the pan before slicing and serving.
