Apricot jam again - i just whack a spoonful or two into the microwave and then brush it onto the cake - hot, warm or cold - provided jam is hot, it doesn't matter.I just use a home brand - doesn't have many lumps!(Only use it for glazing ham and cake; perfect for these jobs).

Simple recipe: (1) Soak 1KG mixed fruit in 2 cups of orange juice overnight.
(2) stir in 2 cups of self raising flour. (add vanilla essence,cinnamon or mixed spices to suit)
(3) Cook at 150 celsiusfor 20 min. turn heat down to 145 celsius and check at 1 hour.
it is ready when a knitting needle or similar is inserted and comes out clean.
Cant go much simpler than that!tastes pretty good!
