Finely dice the dried fruit and candied orange peel. Coarsely chop walnuts.

Knead the yeast mixture, butter, flour, sugar, salt, gingerbread spice and orange zest thoroughly (a mixer with a dough hook is best).

Add dried fruit, candied orange peel and nuts.

Cover with a clean tea towel and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.

Cover a baking tray with baking paper.

Shape the dough into a loaf, place on the tray, cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.

In the meantime, preheat the oven to 180 °C.

Whisk the yolks and milk. Brush the fruit loaf with it.

Bake the fruit loaf on the 2nd rack from the bottom for about 75 minutes.
