A dash of cinnamon and chewy toffee make this moist apple cake really special. Great served as a dessert with custard or in slices with a cup of something hot.
Method
-
Butter a 1.2 litres/2 pint heatproof bowl and dust with flour. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
-
In a bowl, mix the flours, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon together. In a separate bowl or jug, beat together the oil, milk and eggs. Pour this onto the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Fold in the apple and toffee pieces.
-
Pour into the prepared dish and bake for 50-60 minutes. Test the cake is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the centre, if it is cooked it will come out clean.
-
Leave in the dish to cool for 10 minutes then turn the cake out. Leave to cool completely and serve.
