Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup raisins
  • ¼ cup currants
  • ¼ cup sultanas
  • 2 tablespoons of freshly grated lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup of melted butter (for toasting)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or an 8x8 inch square pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a larger bowl, beat the eggs until light and foamy. Add the sugar and oil and beat until blended. Add the vanilla extract.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the raisins, currants, sultanas, lemon zest, cinnamon and nutmeg until evenly distributed. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.

To toast the tea cake, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Slice the cake into 8 equal slices. Dip each slice into the melted butter and place onto a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crunchy.

Serve the toasted tea cake warm with a cup of tea or a scoop of ice cream for a special treat.
