Indulge in a slice of delicious fruity tea cake for a cozy treat.

Ingredients:

350g mixed dried fruit
500.00 ml cold tea
125g caster sugar
125g unsalted butter
225.00 gm self-raising flour
2.50 gm mixed spice
1 egg

Instructions:

Combine the mixed dried fruit with the cold tea in a bowl. Cover and let it soak overnight.
Preheat the oven to 170C and prepare a 25cm x 10cm loaf pan by greasing it.
After draining the dried fruit, discard the soaking liquid. Combine the dried fruit with sugar, butter, and 150ml water in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then simmer on low heat for 20 minutes. Let it cool, then mix in flour, mixed spice, and the egg, stirring thoroughly until well combined.
Transfer the mixture into the greased loaf pan and bake for 90 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. If the cake is browning too quickly on top, simply cover it with baking paper or foil.
Allow to cool for 20 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve sliced with butter.
