This lovely Welsh tea loaf
This lovely Welsh tea loaf is another easy recipe to make. It takes a little time but is well worth the small effort of soaking the fruit the night before for the fruit to soak up the flavours of tea and apricot and of waiting a couple of days for the loaf to mature to become beautifully sticky. We used to live very close to the Welsh boarder when we were small so our local baker always had an exciting selection of Welsh treats for us to try. This was one of my favourites. Cut thick with plenty of butter was the best way to eat it. And yes, you guessed it, with a lovely cup of hot tea…
