This deliciously light and moist loaf is a great snack for the whole family. I have baked this a number of times now. I often make two at once as it freezes well. Its delicious warmed up or toasted. You could add dried apricots or dates to replace the figs if you fancy.

Sooo yummy and sweet! 4 stars because it came out rather crumbly. Followed the recipe to a tee so I’m unsure why (any ideas?) but will still make again!
