How to Make Tea Loaf
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped pecans and the zest of 1 large orange.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and 2 tablespoons Jack Daniel's whiskey.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Sprinkle with an additional 1/4 cup chopped pecans.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice and serve. Makes approximately 14-18 slices.
