Where’s the fruit? Top 8 bracks TESTED

TRADITIONAL at Halloween, in a perfect world a barm brack would be a simple bread enriched with an egg and with nice pump fruit to sweeten it.

Homemade guarantees this. While many don’t have the patience to use yeast, a good brack can be made without it, but it will be heavier. If you are feeling adventurous  there are plenty of recipes online.

Many bakers today don’t use the traditional long process of making bread, instead using flour improvers and various additives to shorten the baking process.
