Currants are soaked overnight in cold tea overnight and then cooked into a simple cake. Great with a cuppa. Simple and no mix-master needed I haven't tried to make this recipe with gluten free flour as yet.

Steps:
- Soak currants in the tea and add the brown sugar. Leave fruit overnight to soak.
- Next day add the self-raising flour and the SR Flour and the lightly beaten egg.
- Mix well with a wooden spoon and place into a greased and lined small loaf tin. I think these are also referred to as a bar tin.
- Bake in a pre-heated moderate oven for about 1 hour. Turn out and cool.
- Serve sliced and buttered. This loaf keeps very well for at least a week.
- Cooking and prep time does not include overnight soaking of the currants.
