Teacakes mean different things to different people, depending on where they’re based. These aren’t the chocolate-covered marshmallow kind, but rather the spiced bread variety. I’ve gone heavier with the spices than is traditional, using those found in a masala chai for something ultra-comforting. Serve warm from the oven with silly amounts of butter, and any leftovers will be even better toasted the next day. Again: don’t forget the butter!
