(Very) easy tea loaf recipes

We used to make an Australian 'boiled cake' quite often; if I can remember the recipe you put the fruit, sugar, butter or marge plus strained tea into a saucepan, simmer and cool then mix in two cups of flour and bake. It always turned out well.
I'll try to find a recipe.

oh - and add two eggs when you add the flour!

Thank you. It'll be my first attempt, so I'm hoping it'll come out edible.

However, we used tea, not just water.

Ah, thank you. I'll just sit here for a while.. procrastinating.

Do you mean a tealoaf with yeast MissA?

I make a Mary Berry Barabrith - easy and its fatless

No, not really, fennel.
Nothing too complicated!
Its in the oven now.
I sort of did what I thought, so we shall see.
It smells nice.
Just that the kitchen looks like a bombsite.
I'll have a look at the Mary Berry one, thanks bigred.

I'll put the kettle on and we can have cake and tea

Do I need to let it rest or something? Will I get heartburn if I eat it warm?
(If its edible!)

No! I can't wait for a slice

I've never understood that - my mother used to say we would get indigestion if we ate the cake before it cooled down.

But we ate puddings hot (with custard).

We weren't allowed to run around after dinner.
We had to wait for our dinner to 'fall off the shelf'.

I won't run around after the cake.

Promise

I think it has a soggy bottom.
Is there anything I can do?
Shall I have a look?

Wow! Look at that!
Thank you so much for helping me.
I feel all Nigella ish.

Don't tell Paul Hollywood

Cover it in icing
Or custard

Its not even soggy.
Its moist!

It's delicious!
Thank you

Do you know, it is, actually. I'm ridiculously pleased with myself.
Silly old cow that I am.

I'm another who makes Mary Berry's Barabrith. Simple and always works

I’m going to try it tomorrow!

I shall try the Mary Berry one too, I think.
I substituted oats for some of the flour, so its like a moist flapjack.

I’d love to eat a chunk of that and a cuppa with you😋

You'd be very welcome, although I've just realised I forgot the eggs!
