Singing Hinnies
Singing Hinnies are a regional recipe from Newcastle in the North of England. They’re very much like Welsh Cakes but traditionally don’t have any added sugar, juts getting their sweetness from the dried fruit. However, I much prefer to add some sugar, it makes all the difference.

Mr. Paul's Tips
As I mentioned above, I prefer to add 25g white sugar to this recipe. I also tried soaking the dried fruit overnight in some cold tea to plump them up and this made them much better.
