How to Make Honey Tea Bread
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup raisins and 1/2 cup dried cherries.
- Pour 1 cup of warm, strongly brewed black tea over the fruit. Stir in 1/2 cup of honey. Mix well.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the mixture stand for 1 1/2 to 2 hours to allow the fruit to plump.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- Gently stir 2 large eggs into the soaked raisin and cherry mixture.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking at 40 minutes.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
