Method

8 steps · 44 min

01
Soak Dried Fruit
Combine the dried cranberries, raisins, and cherries in a bowl with 1 cup of beer. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes to plump up.
02
Prepare Pan and Oven
Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8x4 loaf pan and set it aside.
03
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set this aside.
04
Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, egg, milk, honey, melted butter, molasses, caramelized sugar sauce, vanilla extract, and *only* the beer from the soaking fruit. Mix until everything is well combined.
05
Toss Fruit with Flour
Take 2 tablespoons of flour from your dry mixture and toss it with the soaked fruit. This helps prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the bun while baking.
06
Combine Wet and Dry
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour the wet mixture into it, stirring gently until just combined. Fold in the floured fruit until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
07
Bake the Bun
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
08
Cool and Serve
Let the bun cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve with thin pieces of cheddar cheese.
