Tea Loaf

I used to make Tea Loaf when I was a toddler with my mum, me of course just licking the spoon :-)
I love how simple they are to make and taste great, good any time of the day.

225g mixed dried fruit
250g Self Raising flour
300 ml tea ( earl grey is lovely)
200g Demerara Sugar
1 egg
1 tsp mixed spice
1tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg

Butter for greasing
Loaf tin

Soak the fruits in the tea overnight
Next day preheat oven to 175/ GM 3
Prepare loaf tin, add the fruit to the flour and other ingredients, mix well
Pop in the oven for 1 hour - 1hour 15mins,check with skewer leave to cool slightly in the tin before removing

Enjoy with butter and jam :-)
