Directions

1 Heat oven to 400°F. Grease bottom only of 8x4- or 9x5-inch loaf pan with shortening or cooking spray.
2 In large bowl, beat granulated sugar and butter with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. On low speed, beat in tea, 1/3 cup milk, 2 teaspoons vanilla and the eggs until ingredients are well combined (will appear curdled). Stir in remaining bread ingredients just until moistened. Spread in pan.
3 Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (do not underbake). Cool in pan on cooling rack 10 minutes. Loosen sides of loaf from pan; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool 30 minutes.
4 In small bowl, stir powdered sugar, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla and 3 teaspoons of the milk, adding more milk by teaspoonfuls, until spreadable. Spread glaze over bread. Sprinkle with additional cinnamon. Cool completely, about 2 hours, before slicing. Wrap tightly and store at room temperature up to 4 days, or refrigerate up to 10 days.

Very easy. Followed the recipe for the time and temperature and it worked out perfectly for me. I did have to put foil over the top towards the end to keep it from browning any more. Came out looking exactly as pictured. But I thought it was rather bland. If I tried it again I'd go way heavier with the spices, but I probably won't bother making this one again.

I used one of the suggestions below and cooked it in the cooler temperature, but by about 15 minutes the crust was starting to get really brown. And it was over flowing. And the inside is completely uncooked. So...While the cooked part smells and tastes really good, there is something wrong with this recipe I think. But I might try it again.
