Instructions
Prep:
- Put all the dried fruit into a bowl with the brown sugar and pour the hot tea over the top. Cover and let stand on the counter overnight.
- The next morning, or 6 to 8 hours later.
After prepping:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Grease and flour the inside of a loaf tin and set aside.
- Pour the fruit/tea mixture into a large bowl.
- Next, add the beaten egg.
- Add the gluten free flour, xanthan gum and baking powder and mix well.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place into preheated oven.
- Bake for 60 to 65 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Allow the gluten free tea bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then carefully remove and place on a cooling rack. Be sure to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Use 12 ounces (just under 2 1/4 c) total of dried fruit. Try orange flavored cranberries with raisins and sultanas. Apricot pieces work well, but I used dried pineapple once and didn't like it.
- Also, the stronger the tea, the darker the bread will be.
- I’ve also used 8 oz of tea and 2 oz of brandy, but honestly couldn’t tell the difference in the outcome.
