Ingredients

  • 125 g Unsalted butter softened (plus extra for greasing)
  • 450 g Golden caster sugar
  • 4 Eggs
  • 350 g Plain flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
  • 1.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
  • 360 ml Unsweetened apple sauce
  • 6 Twinings Spiced Chai Infusion Tea Bags

For the icing:

  • 150 g Icing sugar

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 160C.
  • Grease your bundt tin very well using butter.
  • Pour 250ml of boiling water over the 6 tea bags and allow to brew.
  • Meanwhile, beat the butter and caster sugar until very light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time until well combined.
  • In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and spices.
  • Add the flour mix to the wet mix and fold in.
  • Remove the teabags from the infusion.
  • Add the apple sauce and 100ml of the tea infusion to the mixture and stir in well until well combined.
  • Spoon into the bundt tin and bake in the oven for 60 - 70 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool in the tin for 15 minutes and then turn out.
  • Make the icing by mixing the icing sugar with just enough of the remaining tea infusion to create a thick paste.
  • When the cake is totally cold, pour it over the bundt cake.
