I love to bake cakes of different varieties but my all time favourite is always a simple tea cake.

The best part is it tastes best when it is 1 or 2 days old. You can also use lemon or almond extract if you want to give it a fancy touch, other than vanilla.

Sometimes it looks like sugar cookies and sometimes it looks like scones,but mine is neither of those, its literally a teacake, what you want it to be.

This soft teacakes doesn’t require much introduction, so let’s jump into the recipe……
