Best Brack Tea Loaf Recipes
BARM BRACK (IRISH WHISKEY TEA LOAF)
Traditional Irish tea bread served around Halloween once used to foretell marriage by baking a ring in the loaf and waiting for someone to get it. Whoever gets it is supposed to be the next to marry. I only make it once a year around Halloween and I have family members that ask for a second mini loaf to freeze for later in the year. Never gave the recipe out until now. I like it with coffee or tea in the morning very sweet and heavy.

Steps:
- First soak the raisins and sugar in the tea (or tea and whiskey) overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Add Flour, baking powder, and eggs to the tea mixture.
- Spoon the dough into a greased loaf pans. You should be able to fill 3 loaf pans, 8x4 inches (20x10 cm). (I prefer to make them in ready to give away little loaf pans which makes about five per batch).
- Place loaf pans in the oven and bake for 1 hour and 45minutes.
- Leave Bram Brack to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack and glaze the top with the melted honey. ( If you go with the small give away kind let cool then leave in tin drizzle honey on the top and cover with a little room on top and then give them away when ready.).
BARM BRACK (IRISH TEA LOAF)
This is a Irish tea bread and it is very good. I have also ADDED a little Bushmills Irish Whiskey to this when soaking raisins and peel mixture overnight. (small amount to the tea) so the tea still measures 1 cup. maybe 1 tsp to 1 tablespoon.
