Tea loaf recipe please!

Pink.

Hi homealone,

We have a thread with quite a few recipes for making tea loaf so I'll merge your thread with it as it helps to keep all the replies together.

:hello:

I fancy a tea-loaf, like the nice people at Yorkshire Tea make. :drool:

I've tried a search but "tea" and "loaf", unsurprisingly, only narrow it down to about 84 million threads. :rolleyes:

Can anyone point me at a recipe please?

Ta very much. :T

Here's the Be-ro version, I've just been on there looking for banana bread to use up a whole heap of bananas!

hi Mr Bad Example,

I have a recipe that I make regularly, my kids love it, the recipe was given to me by my 88 year old friend, it is delish, especially spread with butter. Here goes:

8 to 10 oz sultanas
4 oz sugar
1 mug of hot strong black tea
1 egg
8 to 10 oz self raising flour

Method: put sugar and sultanas to soak in the tea, pref overnight, then add egg and then the flour, I don't even bother seiving it, give it a good old mix, put into a loaf tin, bake at I think gas mark 4 if the top goes brown too quickly turn it down, takes about an hour, just keep testing (I use a knitting needle) to check it is done.
Hope that helps.

I've been merged. I can feel my identity ebbing away....:rotfl:

I did search, Mr squeaky sir, honest guv, but 'tea' and 'loaf' are not exactly unique.

Thanks for all the help!

Sorry Mr BE, I thought that link would take you straight to the tea loaf.

It's under tea loafs but the recipe is 'Brack'.

...and no, the banana tea bread has no tea...maybe you're supposed to eat it with/for tea?
