Autumn is the perfect time to eat apple cakes and I love this recipe with cinamon. It keeps well but is also perfect warm with cream.
To make Apple and Cinnamon Cake you will need…
Ingredients:-
140g Butter, softened
140g Soft Brown Sugar
2 medium Eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons Cinnamon (plus, 2 more teaspoons for the topping)
250g Self Raising Flour3 small eating apples (or 2 medium), grated
3 small eating apples (or 2 medium), grated
Method:-
Pre heat the oven to 170c and prepare a loaf tin.
Beat the soft brown sugar and butter together and add the beaten egg slowly. Fold in the flour and cinnamon and finally, the apple. Pour into the prepared tin. Bake for between 40 – 50 minutes approximately. (Check with a skewer to see if it comes out clean.)
The cake will be golden brown and moist inside. It keeps well with the flavour improving if its left a day or two. However, I couldn’t resist serving it straight from the oven, drizzled with apple syrup and a large dollop of creamy vanilla ice cream. Heaven.
