How to Make Orange Ginger Tea Loaf
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 25cm x 11cm loaf tin.
- Cream together 175g softened butter and 175g caster sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 175g self-raising flour, 1 tsp ground ginger, ½ tsp baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- In another bowl, mix together 100ml fresh orange juice and 50ml milk.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients and the orange juice mixture alternately to the creamed mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the zest of 1 large orange and 100g chopped walnuts.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
- Let the loaf cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
