Just made malt loaf & you have to try it, it is really easy & absolutely delicious.

Added recipe here

What is malt extract? Is it like vegemite?

No it's sort of sweet & syrupy - tastes a bit like ovaltine

Bought mine at Ocado here

Ooh, might give it a try - DC's and DH love malt loaf!

Is it as sticky as the Soreen one? And would you say its better than a standard tea loaf?

It is miles better than a standard tea loaf. Quite sticky but not as much as a soreen one. I am toying with the idea of swapping some of the sugar with dark treacle in my next one to up the stickiness.

I do it in the bread machine using a special Malt Loaf flour from Wessex Mill. It's not quite like Sorreen, but we really like it and it's even good toasted!

Mmmm sounds good. Will try it next week, thanks!
