Ingredients

225g cooking apples (peeled and chopped into little squares)
225g plain flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
115g butter or margarine
85g light brown sugar
1 egg (beaten)
2 - 3 tbsp milk
1 tsp cinammon

Handy Hint

Not sure if this can be frozen as it never lasts more than a day in our house!!! Lovely eaten with some clotted cream or custard as a dessert.

Method

1. Pre heat your oven to 160 ~ (fan) and line a 7" cake tin, or loaf tin will do nicely.
2. Sift flour and baking powder into a mixing bowl then rub in the butter or marg with your fingertips until the mix resembles breadcrumbs.
3. Add half a teaspoon of cinammon if you like the flavour. Stir in the sugar and egg and mix well, adding milk a little at a time as you go.
4. Transfer mix into the cake tin, sprinkle the top of the mix with a tablespoon of demerara sugar and half a teaspoon of the cinammon (if you like the flavour) and bake for 55 mins, checking the cake with a knife after this time. If the knife comes out clean your cake is ready!!
