Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Black tea bags
- 240 milliliters Boiling water
- 120 milliliters Honey
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 10 grams Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 60 grams Butter, melted
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal later.
Place the black tea bags in a cup, pour the boiling water over them, and let steep for 5 minutes. Remove and discard the tea bags, and allow the tea to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, mix the cooled tea, honey, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula. Do not overmix; stir just until no dry streaks remain.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
