A super most fresh apple cake with a lovely honey flavour
Ingredients
150gSoftened Butter
225gCaster Sugar
4Free-Range Medium Eggs
225gSelf Raising Flour
100gSoured Cream
2Pink Lady applespeeled, cored and cubed (or any dessert apples)
1Tablespoonrunny Honey
Drizzle of runny Honey for top
Instructions
Preheat oven 180C / 350F / Gas4
Line a rectangular cake tin with baking parchment and grease well (10' x 8') Guess you could also make it round too and thus 8' tin) or a Loaf tin 15 x 4
Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. I used a stand mixer. It can be done by hand and banish those bingo wings?
Next add one egg at a time, beating throughly, if the mix starts to curdle add a tablespoon of the flour.
Carry on adding the eggs until all combined
Add the flour and mix until smooth
Then add the soured cream and apple chunks, giving it a good old stir
Finally stir through 1 tablespoon honey
Tip into the lined baking tin and smooth top
Give it a quick drizzle with honey - I went diagonal stripes
Pop in the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes until firm to the touch and golden brown (time dependant on cake tin size) If you are using a loaf tin - bake will be approx 40-45 minutes!
Remove from the oven, cool for 10 minutes and tip onto a cooling tray
Serve warm with custard / cream or ice cream or leave to cool and have a square with your brew!
