Irish Tea Cake (Barmbrack) – Food Wishes ctm magazine
Learn how to make an Irish Tea Cake! I attempted to make an extra moist and fruity version of an ancient Irish fruit loaf called “Barmbrack,” and the results were as delicious, as they were confusing, and aesthetically challenged. Visit https://foodwishes.blogspot.com/2019/03/irish-tea-cake-was-this-barmbrack-wack.html for the ingredients, more information, and many, many more video recipes. I really hope you enjoy this Irish Tea Cake recipe!

Lesson…learn the ruels before you improvise? Hi pot im kettle.😁 weee looove youuu chef jooohn!
If not butter, that looks like it would be great with clotted cream.
This man. This man. This man!!!!💯
Barmbrack is delicious with real butter.
Great toasted as well.
Call it a "pudding" and the English will make it a national dish
It's kind of a relief to see that even Chef John doesn't always get super results or even know what's going on sometimes… 🙂
After eating the whole loaf in one go, he was still confused and continued to make another one.
This video is so funny! Please keep up the good work
Looks like vegan pate'
Soda bread is bread, Irish barm brack
is a cake, you seem to have mixed the two, that's why you ended up with a door stop.
What? No cayenne?
irish breakfast tea is guinness … that my friend is english breakfast tea….
OMG! where's the "obligatory shake of cayanne"
Yeah that was pretty inappropriate John. Irish people cook with Guinness.
irish soda bread kinda does that not rise in the pan stuff i guess its a irish fruit bread thing
I also thought it was meatloaf😂
“Kiss of ginger” I see what you did there
My Aunt used to take me to Bewley’s in Dublin, Ireland for tea and Barmbrack. Thanks for the recipe, I will make it at home now.
It's just like us Irish people. We don't look so good but we taste GREAT.
In Wales we make basically the same thing, but call it Barabrith.
That looks disgusting if I'd baked that it wouldn't be on you tube
For a proper Brack look up Odlums Brack a proper Irish Baker and you cant go wrong. Measurements in grammes or ounces though
Just can't watch this Shouldn't wonder its a disaster. Some flour some sugar some tea some…….. doesn't anything get weighed? Ridiculous watch the video and recipe from Odlums can't go wrong.

I made a cake the other day that, I made up on the spot on the basis of having some stuff I needed to get rid of. It came out really similar to this, in as much as I was so deflated when I saw it, yet taste-wise, it was great. Maybe I unintentionally made a version of Barmbrack.
Lmao 😂
Omg you and butter!
Most unlike any barmbarck I have ever made.
AhHaha! You're so funny!!!
So I just made this. To bad you can’t post pics here. It raised. Flavor is awesome. Appearance,,, less than stellar.
I clicked on this thinking it was a pizza, i'm still not convinced its not a pizza 😉
It doesn’t happen often but Irish Tea Cake and Barmbrack are NOT the same thing. Barmbrack is light and fluffy with no tea, whereas Irish Tea Cake (which should be darker in colour) is much more dense and contains tea. (I’m from Northern Ireland by the way).
Irish Fruitcake. LOL.
Hmm, it's very similar to Christmas Fruit Cake. Change some of the dried fruit, substitute almond flour for the spelt and soak the fruit in alcohol instead of tea and you've have a good mocked version 🙂 I'm surprised that it didn't appear to rise up at all though.
If people don't like fruit cake in America we certainly don't want Irish fruit cake! No Irish fruit cake! LOL
Never laughed so much, watching a cooking tutorial! 😘😁😁😁
Yeah, even regular fruitcake using soaked dried fruits can be "raw" looking cause the fruit kinda steams rather then bakes the interior around it
Soaking fruitcake in dark rum, Whiskey,and Bourbon hides that look though
Also its not unusual to toast fruitcake
Looks good to me
Oh thank god! I half clicked on this just to make sure those weren't slices of tomato on top 😅
You are the Father Jack of your barmbrack.
Next time!
laughs in Bara Brith
I don't think he used enough baking powder.
Looks great to me.
No sweat 😓. Yours wasn’t terrible. It looks a lot like Irish ☘️ YouTube Chef, Jenna -“Bigger Bolder Baking”.
She had a few different steps
1) soaked fruit overnight
2) She added more Baking Powder🥤
3) She Used 3 very strong IrishTea bags to soak fruit
Then 🥚 🥚 not 1.
While her Barmbrack was a tad higher than yours, the color was pretty much the same.
Oops again…you’re supposed to put a memento in the batter, like a ring 💍 or like maybe an old 👠 ? 🤣
(I can’t remember why).
So bottom line is… yours Chef John was almost as good but you didn’t have as much of:
“☘️ The Luck Of the Irish ☘️ “
Does this guy actually talk like this or is it just for YouTube Lol
To be honest, that's how many Irish breads come out. They tend to be dense and hardy although this would be pretty fancy because of all the fruit. 🙂 I think it looks grand!
yet another reason I love & adore Chef John, he's so good laughing through the fail …. (scratch that) less than perfect looking, but highly entertaining final products. I raise my glass to you Chef John!
Does Chef John really not make adjustments and retry recipes before blogging them? I won't even guarantee other people in my household a look or taste at my first attempts unless I'm reasonably pleased with them.
Would it have turned out the same, if you had baked it in a muffin tin? Kind of resembling a mini shortbread for fruit, or mini muffin for a whipped cream?… I absolutely love your channel btw. 👌👏👏👏❤️
