ealoaf and weetabix brownies/cakes

tootoo

Ive searched and looked in the index collection but cant find the recipes.
Could anyone help please? The tealoaf was a recipe of literally a cup of x y and z, but I can't remember! I do remember there wasn't any butter though.
Thank you

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Tea Loaf[/FONT]


[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]3/4 pint of cold tea (strained)
7 oz soft brown sugar
2 oz chopped mixed peel
6 oz currants
5 oz raisins
10 oz self raising flour
1 medium egg lightly beaten

Oven settings: 160 c / 325 F / Gas mark 3

Place the tea, sugar, peel, currents and raisins in a bowl, cover and leave to stand overnight.

Stir the flour into the fruit. Add the egg, stir well and pour into a lightly greased 2lb loaf tin.

Cook in the centre of a preheated oven for 1 3/4 to 2 hours

To test to see if it is cooked, insert a skewer (or an old metal knitting needle) - if it comes out clean it is cooked.

Serve thickly sliced, spread with butter[/FONT]

There's an easier tea loaf

2 cups black tea
2 cups dried fruit
2 cups sr flour
1 cup sugar


Soak fruit till teas cold, then stir it together, cook for 50 mins on low oven 140 - 160.
