Apple Cake

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 20cm round cake tin.
• Core and quarter apples, then slice each quarter into further quarters (ie. 16 slices per apple).
• Use an electric mixer to cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, add eggs one at a time until well combined. Add flour and cream, beat until smooth.
• Pour into prepared tin and press apple slices, skin side up, into the batter.
• The apple slices will be nearly touching. Sprinkle with cinnamon and caster sugar.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
• Allow the cake to cool for 5 minutes in the tin and then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool.
