Tea Loaf recipe

Sulatana Tea Loaf.

8oz Sultanas (you can use any dried fruit)
1/4 pint Cold Tea
8oz SR Flour
Pinch of salt
6oz Demerara Sugar (I used Castor, but next time I shall use this)
1 Large Egg beaten
4 Fluid oz Cold Water

Soak Sultana's in tea overnight (I soaked the fruit for about 2 hours, as I was desparate for Cake and had run out of Margarine!!)
Grease 2lb loaf tin - Gas 4/160
Mix flour, salt and sugar.
Add sultana's, tea, egg and the Cold water
Mix well to make a sticky batter (be warned this is very wet!!)
Pour into tin
Bake for 1 hour and 20mins.
Cover with Greaseproof paper 15mins before the end if browning too much.
Makes 1 loaf, and freezes well.
