    How to Prepare Cranberry Tea Cakes [Vegan]

    1. Heat the milk in a pan or microwave until it's slightly warm (not boiling/simmering) add the sugar, yeast, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt and mix together. Let it rest for 10 minutes so the yeast can activate.
    2. In a large bowl add the flour and make a well in the center. Pour in the milk mix and stir until it forms and dough ball.
    3. On a well-floured surface knead the dough for 5 minutes.
    4. Roll into a ball and place on an oiled plate, cover with a tea towel and leave in a warm place for 45 minutes until it's doubled in size. I left mine in the oven with just the light on (Oven was off).
    5. Remove the risen dough from the plate and knead for a further two minutes on a well-floured surface.
    6. Spread out into a circle and pour on the cranberries. Knead for a couple of minutes so the cranberries are mixed into the dough.
    7. Cut into 4-5 equal pieces and place spread out on an oiled baking tray.
    8. Cover and place back in a warm place for 45 minutes. Mine had risen so much I removed them from the tray and shaped into tea cakes then placed on a nonstick baking mat.
    9. Cook for 15-20 minutes until slightly brown.
    10. Cool on a wire rack for half an hour.
    11. Serve with butter, jam, coconut cream, and a hot cup of tea.
