Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

150 g (1 cup) raisins
150 g (1 cup) sultanas or currants
50 g (½ cup) mixed citrus peel
250 ml (1 cup) strong tea (use 2-3 teabags / loose leaf tea)
2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
100 g (½ cup) soft brown sugar
240 g (2 cups) self raising flour
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp tea (from a teabag)
1 orange (zest only)
strips of orange or lemon zest (optional)

Steps:

Make 250ml (1 cup) of tea, using tea bags or loose leaf tea. Leave the tea to steep for five minutes - you need a strong brew!
Pour the hot tea over the dried fruit and leave to soak for 2-3 hours or even overnight.
Preheat the oven to 170C (325F) or 150C (300F) Fan Setting. Line a 900g (2lb) loaf tin with baking paper or use a cake liner.
Add the eggs and brown sugar to the soaked fruit (no need to drain any liquid, should any remain in the bowl) and stir to combine.
Sift in the flour and add cinnamon, tea leaves and orange zest. Mix everything together, making sure no dry pockets of flour remain.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and level. Bake for about 1 hour or until the cake is risen and a skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
Lift the cake out of the tin using the baking paper and cool on a wire rack. Top with the orange zest, if using and slice to serve.

EASY FRUIT LOAF

Easy Fruit Loaf image

This is a dellicious rich fruit loaf. You can vary the recipe by using Earl Grey tea or replacing a little of the tea with brandy or sherry. This is a combination of my mother-in laws recipe and one I found in a supermarket cook book. it tastes a little like a Scottish fruit dumpling. No nee to butter this loaf as it is very rich.
