Enjoy a classic, fruity cake, packed full of plump tea-infused sultanas and raisins. Slice it into thick wedges and spread with salted butter for a satisfying treat

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Afternoon tea

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

170g sultanas
170g raisins
1 orange, zested
300ml hot strong Earl Grey or Lady Grey tea
2 medium eggs, lightly beaten
250g self-raising flour
200g light soft brown sugar
butter, for greasing, plus extra to serve

Steps:

  • Mix the sultanas, raisins and orange zest in a large mixing bowl. Pour over the tea and cover the bowl. Leave to sit for a minimum of 6 hours or ideally overnight to allow the dried fruit to soak up all the liquid.
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160 fan/gas 4. Grease and line a 900g loaf tin. Add the eggs, flour and sugar to the soaked fruit, ensuring everything is well combined. Spoon the mixture into the tin and place in the centre of the oven for 1 hour 30 mins or until firm to the touch. Leave to cool in the tin for 15 mins before transferring to a wire rack.
  • Cut into thick slices and serve with butter. To store, wrap tightly and keep in an airtight container for up to five days. The loaf will taste even better after a few days.

MY GRANDMOTHER'S FAT FREE ENGLISH TEA LOAF - BREAD



My Grandmother's Fat Free English Tea Loaf - Bread image

This is my grandmother's recipe which I have adapted slightly - my Mum also makes this regularly! There is no fat, butter or oil in this lovely, moist Tea Bread, making it a treat that can be enjoyed on a regular basis. Feel free to use your favourite tea, I often make this with Earl Grey and Lapsang Souchong. Also make sure that the fruit soaks for at least 12 hours - that's what plumps up the fruit and keeps this Tea Bread so moist. I have never felt the need to add spices, the taste of the tea and the fruit is tasty enough. This makes two loaves - they keep well in a tin or can be frozen with great success.

Time 13h

Yield 2 tea Loaves, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces raisins
8 ounces currants
8 ounces sultanas
6 ounces candied peel
8 ounces demerara sugar
8 fluid ounces hot brewed tea (such as Lapsang Souchong or Earl Grey tea)
1 large eggs or 2 medium eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 lb self-raising flour

Steps:

  • You will need two 1 lb (450 g) loaf tins (6 x 4 x 2 1/2 inches), the bases lined with greaseproof paper (parchment).
  • The evening before you want to bake these loaves, place all the fruits, including the candied peel, in a bowl, then dissolve the sugar in the hot tea, pour this over the fruits, cover the bowl and leave it overnight.
  • Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 3, 325°F/170°C.
  • Beat the egg and add the milk.
  • Add the beaten egg & milk mixture to the bowl containing the fruits. Then sift in the flour, and mix them together well.
  • Now divide the mixture between the prepared loaf tins and bake them in the centre of the oven for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, or until they feel springy in the centre.
  • Then straight away, loosen them with a palette knife and turn them out on to a wire rack to cool.
  • Store in an airtight tin or cover with extra greaseproof paper and freeze. (For up to 3 months).
  • These are great sliced, toasted and served with butter as a tea-time snack.
