    1 1/4           cups  2% low-fat milk
    4                     English Breakfast tea bags
    1                cup  all-purpose flour
       3/4           cup  whole wheat flour
       3/4           cup  sugar -- divided, plus
    1         tablespoon  sugar
    2          teaspoons  baking powder
       1/4      teaspoon  salt
    1                     egg -- beaten
       1/4           cup  canola oil
    1         tablespoon  lemon juice
    2          teaspoons  finely grated lemon peel
       1/2           cup  dried apricots -- chopped

This hearty not-too-sweet bread is perfect for breakfast toasted and 
spread with butter or cream cheese.

1.   Preheat oven to 350F.  Grease bottom of a 9 x 5" loaf pan.

2.   In a small saucepan, heat milk over med heat until hot but not 
boiling; remove from the heat until hot but not boiling; remove from 
heat and add tea bags.  Cover and let steep 6 - 7 min; remove tea 
bags, gently squeezing out milk, and discard bags.  Let cool.

3.   In a med bowl, stir together flours, 3/4C sugar, baking powder 
and salt.  In another med bowl, combine the egg, oil, lemon juice and 
1C cooled milk tea.  (Mixture will curdle slightly.)  Add egg mixture 
to dry mixture stirring just until moistened.  Fold in lemon peel and apricots.

4.   Spoon batter into prepared pan.  Bake 50 - 55 min, until a 
wooden toothpick inserted near center comes out clean.

5.   Meanwhile, stir remaining milk tea with 2T sugar.  While bread 
is still in pan, brush tea-sugar mixture over top of loaf.  Let cool 
in pan 10 min then remove to wire rack.
