On the first ever showing of The Great British Baking Show, in the first challenge, the contestants made their signature tea loaf and we saw Mark make his sticky marmalade tea loaf. This is our version of his dish.

¼ tsp salt
2 tbsp golden syrup
STICKY GLAZE:
3 tbsp marmalade
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 tbsp hot water
Instructions
Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Grease and line a 9x5 inch loaf tin.

Stir in golden syrup. Pour into prepared tin.
Bake 50-60 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.
