Harvest Spice Tea Cake
Ingredients:
1/2 cup water
2 cinnamon tea bags (see note)
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
3 eggs
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp. Vanilla extract -
Butter
Nutmeg
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bring the water to a boil in a
small pan,
add the tea bags, and steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Mix the other
ingredients
in a large bowl. Add the tea, carefully squeezing excess liquid from
tea
bags before discarding the bags. Mix the batter well. Pour into a
8x8x2-
inch greased baking dish that has been buttered. Bake for 25 minutes.
When cooled slightly, spread a little butter on top to melt and
sprinkle
with the nutmeg. Note: Any spicy type tea will work great--even a
chai.
