1. Grease 4 - 16 oz ramekins with butter. Line bases with parchment paper.
2. Cream butter, sugar and vanilla extract until pale and creamy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Fold in flour, baking soda and spice mix alternately with milk. Add breadcrumbs, dried fruit and almonds and mix until combined. Transfer to prepared ramekins, pressing mixture firmly into ramekins. Cover each with greased parchment paper and 2 sheets of foil.
