Apple-and-honey cake

Serves 8

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 40 minutes

Cooking Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

125 g unsalted butter, at room temperature
115 g caster sugar
3 extra-large free-range eggs
1/2 t vanilla
120 g cake flour
2 t baking powder
1/4 t salt
2 T milk
4 - 6 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into wedges

For the syrup:

50 g unsalted butter
4 T honey

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Cream the butter with the sugar until very light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla.
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together, twice. Fold into the egg mixture. Stir in the milk, adding a little more if the mixture seems too stiff.
3. Turn into a greased 20 x 30 cm baking dish. Arrange the apple wedges in neat rows on top of the batter.
4. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. To make the syrup, melt the butter with the honey. Prick the cake all over and pour the hot syrup over the hot cake.
