Recipe's preparation

Cakes

Preheat oven to 180 deg. celcius (fan-forced) and line two 12-hole muffin trays with patty pans.

Place 2 heaped tsp of loose tea into a mug and fill to top with boiling water. Set aside.

Mill almonds in TM bowl for 20 secs / sp 9. Set aside.

If using a 'chunky' style of tea blend (I used T2 'Strawberries & Cream' fruit tea), mill remaining 5 tsp for 30 secs / sp 9. Leave in bowl.

Add butter and sugar to TM bowl and cream for 1 min / 37 deg. / sp 4

With blades rotating on sp 4, add eggs through lid one at a time, continuing to mix for about 20 secs after last egg added.

Add flour, milled almonds and 170g of the brewed tea to the TM bowl and mix for 30 secs / sp 4. Scrape down bowl and mix further 20 secs if required.

Spoon into each patty pan until 2/3 full and bake in oven for 15 mins.

Tip

Other tea varieties that would suit this recipe include chai, earl grey and fruit/herbal teas.

You could use a self-raising 'cake flour' for a softer texture, but this is not essential.

These were served with a simple passionfruit icing, but you could play around with complementary flavour combinations and create something wonderful!
