Add enough flour to make fairly firm dough. Add fruit and turn out on floured surface. Knead in balance of flour to make fairly stiff dough. Let rise in greased bowl until doubled in bulk. Punch down, divide in 2 pieces, round and let rest for 10 minutes. Round again and pat into greased 8" round cake pan.

Let rise until about doubled and bake 30 to 35 minutes @ 350 - 360 degrees.
