Steps:

  • First make the stewed apple. Peel, core and chop the apple into chunks and add into a large pan with the sugar, cinammon and splash of water. Heat on high until a smooth paste is formed - don't worry about a few lumps. Leave to cool in a bowl of cold water/in the fridge.
  • Preheat the oven to 150C fan (170C conventional) and grease a medium sized cake tin.
  • Cream the margarine and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients, including the cooled stewed apple - if it's too hot then the mixture, eggs in particular, will begin to cook.
  • Mix until fully combined and pour into the prepared cake tin. Place in the oven and leave for 35-45mins. It won't rise too much, but is ready when a skewer comes out clean.
  • Leave to cool before removing from the tin - it is a delicate cake that will fall apart if not left for long enough.

Easy moist apple cake with cinnamon and ginger

Provided by cuppycake3

Time 1h

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

115g of Self Raising Flour
115g butter or marg
100g light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 peeled apple chopped into small pieces
2 tsp of ginger
1tsp of cinnamon
Optional 4 square of chocolate melted to drizzle on the top

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 150. Cream the butter with the sugar with an electric whisk for at least 2 mins
  • Whisk in the 2 eggs
  • Sieve the flour and cinnamon and ginger into the mixture and fold in. Add the chopped apple by folding in too
  • Place in a greased or silicon loaf tin and bake for 40 mins. Put a skewer in the middle of cake to see if it comes out clean. If not cooked give it 5 mins longer
  • After cooled for 10 mins place cake on a wire rack. When completely cooled drizzle melted chocolate on top if desired

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples that hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp.
  • Soak the sultanas: Soaking the sultanas in hot water or tea before adding them to the batter will help to plump them up and prevent them from becoming dry in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough, dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through without overbaking it.
  • Let the cake cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent the cake from crumbling.

Apple and Sultana Loaf Cake is a classic teacake recipe that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser.
