Banana Fruit and Tea Loaf

Ingredients:

 

160g sultanas

125g raisins

125g cranberries

50g dried peaches, chopped

250ml cold black tea (I used Lipton tea)

2 tbs brandy (optional)

2 ripe bananas, mashed

220g brown sugar

100g chopped walnuts

1 egg, lightly beaten

2 tbs milk

2 tbs treacle (I used golden syrup)

400g self-raising flour

Butter, to serve

Method:

 

1.) Place the sultanas, raisins, cranberries and chopped peaches in a large bowl with cold tea and brandy. Cover and leave to soak overnight.

 

2.) Pre-heat oven to 180C. Grease 1 litre loaf pan and line the base and sides with baking paper.

 

3.) Add bananas, brown sugar, walnuts, egg, milk and glucose syrup to the fruit. Sift in the flour, then fold everything together and spread in the prepared pan.

 

4.) Bake for 1 hour 15 mins or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. (Cover with foil if browning too quickly).

 

5.) Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with butter if desired.

注：

吃不完的面包可以冷藏起来，要吃时微波炉“叮”热就可以了。
