Ingredients:
2 cup Dried Apricots, snipped (1/2 pound)
1 1/2 cup Dried Currants (1/4 pound)
1/2 cup Dried Dates, snipped
1/2 cup Pecans, chopped
1 1/4 cup Water
1/2 cup Apricot Brandy -or- Unsweetened Apple Juice
1 package (or 1 tablespoon) Active Dry Yeast
1/4 cup Warm Water (110 to 115 degrees)
1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
1/4 cup Honey
1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Ground Cloves
1 cup Unbleached Pastry Flour
2 To 2-1/4 c Whole Wheat Flour
Instructions:
Combine the apricots, currants, dates, pecans, 1-1/4 cups water and
brandy in a bowl. Let stand overnight or for at least 3 hours.

Dissolve the yeast in the warm water. Add the oil, honey, cinnamon
and cloves. Blend in the dried fruit and nut mixture. Stir in enough
pastry flour and whole wheat flour to make a stiff dough. Beat well.

Spoon the dough into two 5- by 7-inch bread pans. Cover with a damp
towel and let rise in a warm place for 1 to 1-1/2 hours, or until
almost doubled.

Bake in a 400-degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pan for
10 minutes. Remove and cool completely on a wire rack. When cooled
thoroughly, wrap in aluminum foil and store for at least 3 days before
serving.

Bread may be made several weeks ahead and kept in an airtight
container in a cool place.
