Cook Time: 45 - 60 Minutes
What you need
- 225g/8 oz Odlums Self Raising Flour
- 1 level teaspoon Odlums Baking Powder
- 225g/8 oz Shamrock Golden Caster Sugar
- 2 Eggs
- Few drops Goodall’s Almond Essence
- 150g/5 oz Butter, melted
- 350g/12 oz Cooking Apples, peeled, cored and sliced
- 25g/1 oz Shamrock Flaked Almonds
Recipe Steps
- Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas 5. Lightly grease and base line a 20cm/8″ deep cake tin.
- Place the flour, baking powder, caster sugar, eggs, almond essence and melted butter into a mixing bowl and mix well together.
- Spread half the mixture into the prepared tin. Place the sliced apples on top of the mixture in the tin, piling them mainly towards the centre.
- Using two tablespoons, roughly spoon the remaining mixture over the apples. Do not worry if it is a bit rough looking as it spreads during baking.
- Sprinkle with the flaked almonds and bake for about 45-60 minutes until brown and set.
- Serve hot with ice cream or custard. Alternatively, serve cold or warm dusted with icing sugar.
