Moringa Loaf Cake (Tropical Sun)

teas.co.uk · 15 min plus 50 min bake · Makes 1 loaf

You'll need

• 3 tea bags of Tropical Sun Moringa (leaf snipped out)
• 175g soft butter
• 175g caster sugar
• 3 large eggs, beaten
• 200g self raising flour
• 2 tablespoons milk
• Juice of half a lemon and 2 tablespoons icing sugar, for a drizzle

Method

1. Heat the oven to 160C fan and line a 2lb loaf tin. Snip open the 3 moringa bags and tip the leaf into a small bowl.
2. Beat the butter and caster sugar until light, then beat in the eggs a little at a time.
3. Fold in the flour and the moringa leaf, then loosen with the milk to a soft dropping consistency.
4. Spoon into the tin and bake for about 50 minutes until golden and a skewer comes out clean.
5. Mix the lemon juice and icing sugar into a thin drizzle, spoon over the warm loaf, then cool and slice.
6. Rest the batter in the tin for 5 minutes before baking; the moringa hydrates and the green crumb deepens.
