I've followed a recipe for apple cake, exactly as it said until the end when it said 'pour the mixture into the tin'. My mix is as stiff as a board. I couldn't so much 'fold' the apple in, as wrestle it in. I've read and re-read the recipe but I've not missed anything out. I was tempted to loosen it with a few tbs milk but I've ended up just smoothing it all over with my trusty old spatula. It's lurking in the oven now. Anyone else had a recipe that's not turned out as expected? I usually follow a baking recipe closely for the first time and then have a fiddle with it. If all else fails, Dh will eat it with custard. He'll eat most things with custard. Smells good anyway - cake that is.
