How To make Belgian Loaf

Scoring a batard - simple wheat stalk

Chris's favourite cake for a Sunday afternoon with a cup of tea!

We don’t do a lot of baking on our channel but I just had to share my recipe for a moist and fruity tea bread, it's one of Chris's absolute favourite cakes and is perfect for a Sunday afternoon with a cup of tea!

Free printable recipe is available on our site:

Ingredients:
150 g (3/4 cup) sultanas
150 g (3/4 cup) raisins
300 ml (just over 10 fl oz) hot tea
250 g (2 cups + 1 tbsp) plain (all-purpose) flour
2 tsp baking powder
200 g (1 cup + 2 tbsp) soft light brown sugar
1 tsp mixed spice
2 tbsp melted butter
2 medium eggs

Instructions
1. Place the sultanas and raisins in a bowl and pour over the hot tea. Cover and allow to soak up the liquid overnight.

2. Preheat the oven to 170°C/325°F and line a 2lb loaf tin with baking parchment or a tin liner.

3. Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and mixed spice in a mixing bowl. Give it a stir, then mix in the butter and eggs - using a wooden spoon or spatula.

4. Add in the raisins, sultanas and any liquid left in the bowl. Stir together until everything is thoroughly combined. It will be a very wet dough.

5. Spoon the wet dough into the lined loaf tin, place in the oven and bake for 1 hour - to 1 hour 15 minutes. You'll know it's done when an inserted skewer comes out clean. If you find that the top of the tea bread is starting to look too dark whilst it's in the oven, you can cover it will foil.

6. Once cooked, remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes.

7. Then remove from the tin and allow to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes
This cake should keep for a week or more wrapped in baking parchment and placed in a sealed container at room temperature (in fact, the cake tastes even better after a day or two).

Mixed Spice is typically a British blend of spices normally consisting of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and all spice although other spices can be present depending on the brand. If you’re in the US then it is similar to pumpkin pie spice mix.

What is Rustic Bread
The term Rustic Bread is a very relative term.
For me, a rustic bread is a bread that has a heavy crust, an open texture, and a delicious flavor.
It is made with fewest ingredients ;Flour ,water, salt and a leavening agent a starter, either a wild yeast starter, such as sourdough, or a “biga” or “poolish”
To get delicious flavor to a rustic bread or a crusty bread usually it requires a long fermentation.
For that we add a starter to our bread dough.

What is the difference between poolish and biga 
Biga and poolish are types of pre-ferments used in Italian and French baking respectively. 
Poolish, the wetter one, where flour and water are added in almost 1:1 ratio.
Biga is more of a thick preferment as it uses less amount of water, somewhere between 70-80 percent.

How to make this homemade artisan bread
We can make this easy artisan bread in five simple steps
1.prepare the biga(evening)
2.Prepare the bread dough(morning)
3.First proofing (2 hours)
4.Shape the bread
5.Final Rising(50-60 minutes)
Bake the bread at 480 F or 250 C for 18 minutes and then reduce the temperature to 230 c or 450 F and bake for another 10-12 minutes.
