welsh tea loaf
  • 2 3/4 cups water
  • 1 (15 ounce) package raisins
  • 4 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 1/2 cups butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
  2. Combine water and raisins in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in baking soda and let cool.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. Stir in molasses, vanilla and salt. Stir in flour and then beat in raisin mixture until well combined. Spoon batter into prepared pans.
  4. Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean, about 50 to 60 minutes. Cool in pans on a wire rack. Serve at room temperature.
