Tea loaf

This classic tea loaf is really tasty, moist and so easy to make. Best served sliced and buttered with a cup of Typhoo tea.

• Preparation: 20 mins
• Cooking: 90 mins

What you need:

• 350g mixed fruit
• 200g soft brown sugar
• 270g self raising fl our
• 3/4 pint freshly made Typhoo tea
• 2 medium eggs

What you do:

1. Make the tea and pour over the fruit and sugar. Leave to soak overnight (or longer if you like a stronger tea flavour).
2. After the fruit and sugar has soaked in the tea, mix the fl our and beaten eggs with the fruit and sugar.
