Steps:
- Put the dried fruit and tea in a bowl and leave to soak for a few hours. I usually do this the night before or in the morning before work.
- Pre-heat the oven to 150°C, or 180°C if your are not using a fan assisted oven.
- Add the sugar and flour to the tea and fruit mix, and the ground ginger if you choose to include it. Stir well until thoroughly combined.
- Scoop the mixture into a greased 2lb loaf tin and bake for 45 minutes to an hour.
- If you prick the cake with a cocktail stick and it comes out clean, it is ready. Leave the loaf to cool in the tin for at least 20 minutes. After that, run a knife along the outer edge of the loaf to loosen it and tip it onto a cooling rack.

Steps:
- Mix the sultanas, raisins and orange zest in a large mixing bowl. Pour over the tea and cover the bowl. Leave to sit for a minimum of 6 hours or ideally overnight to allow the dried fruit to soak up all the liquid.
- Heat the oven to 180C/160 fan/gas 4. Grease and line a 900g loaf tin. Add the eggs, flour and sugar to the soaked fruit, ensuring everything is well combined. Spoon the mixture into the tin and place in the centre of the oven for 1 hour 30 mins or until firm to the touch. Leave to cool in the tin for 15 mins before transferring to a wire rack.
- Cut into thick slices and serve with butter. To store, wrap tightly and keep in an airtight container for up to five days. The loaf will taste even better after a few days.

- Make 250ml (1 cup) of tea, using tea bags or loose leaf tea. Leave the tea to steep for five minutes - you need a strong brew!
- Pour the hot tea over the dried fruit and leave to soak for 2-3 hours or even overnight.

- Sift in the flour and add cinnamon, tea leaves and orange zest. Mix everything together, making sure no dry pockets of flour remain.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and level. Bake for about 1 hour or until the cake is risen and a skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.

FRUITY TEA LOAF
Found this in a Gooseberry Patch pamphlet sent to me featuring recipes using raisins. I used dried cranberries when I made it instead of raisins. I think any dried fruit would work well, like dried cherries or pineapple. I warmed my slices and used for breakfast with a spread of peanut butter. I used the glaze but can see this being good without it too. The orange flavor added a nice depth to the bread and balanced out the cranberries I used. This can also be made into three 5x3" mini loaf pans.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 and grease a 9x5" loaf pan (can also fit into three 5x3" mini pans).
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and then set aside.
- Stir together sugar, yogurt, oil, eggs, vanilla and zest.
- Add flour mixture to wet ingredients and stir gently until well mixed (don't over mix or the loaf will be dry). Stir in dried fruit and nuts gently.
- Pour batter into pan and bake for 45-50 minutes until pick comes out clean (if using mini pans bake 25-30 minutes).
- Cool on wire rack 10 minutes before turning out.
- Stir together the ingredients for the glaze - watching the amount of orange juice to make it a nice pourable glaze and not too runny.
- Drizzle over cooled loaf.
