How to Make Apricot And Hazelnut Bran Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf tin or 8-inch square cake tin.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup milk and 1 cup all-bran cereal. Let soak for 5-10 minutes to soften the bran.
  4. Add 1 ½ cups whole wheat flour, ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 1 cup chopped dried apricots, ½ cup chopped hazelnuts, and 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda (baking soda). Mix thoroughly until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared tin and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
