I'm half way through a good housekeeping book recipe for a fruit cake (loaf tin type made with fruit soaked overnight in cold tea) and realised it asks for wholemeal rather than plain.
It's 12 oz fruit
8 oz wholemeal flour
But I do have plain and spelt flour. Would say 6 oz plain flour and 2 oz spelt work maybe? Or 5 plain to 3 spelt?
I just don't want to buy MORE flour as I have this lot and I bake so rarely that it just gets wasted!
If it fails then that's fine, I just wondered if anyone had a hunch on it!
