Breadmaker Fruit Tea Loaf

Recipes »  Bread  »  Breads - Other

Moist fragrant tea bread, a variety of combinations can be used to suit your taste. Low fat, also good for diabetics as most of the sugar is from natural sources. Delicious with a cup of tea, and divine toasted. These ingredients give a dark malty texture to the tea bread, if you prefer a lighter coloured, moist loaf, use 3/4 packet of moist ready to eat apricots, chopped, and make up to 1lb weight with mixed dried fruit. If you like a nutty taste and texture, use a packet of brazil nuts, chopped and make up to 1 lb in weight with mixed dried fruit.

"The recipe was perfect, the loaf turned out fantastic.
Only thing I would add this next time tonight is extra yeast, I always use 22 grams of yest for my bread and makes it less dense and raises higher, but the recipe given is fantastic, thankyou again now for banana bread
Great site thankyou.

This is a good recipe, only needed some adjusting with my bread machine. I have to put the liquid in first, then the dry, then make a well for the yeast. While the kids weren't to keen on it I and my friend sure were! There wasn't any left for a second day try, maybe next time!

Allow to cool in the bread pan for a while before tipping out onto a wire cooling rack. This texture and taste of this tea loaf is always better the second day and I have found it keeps really well for at least a week wrapped in tin foil. [I posted this recipe.]
