175g caster sugar
2 eggs, beaten
225g self-raising flour
2 medium cooking apples, peeled and chopped
1tsp lemon rind1
2tsp demerara sugar2
pinch cinnamon
pinch nutmeg
Preheat oven to 180°C and grease and line a 900g loaf tin.
Cream butter and sugar. Gradually add eggs and flour. Stir in apples and lemon rind.
Pour into the tin and sprinkle with sugar and spices. Bake for 1 – 1 1/2 hours.
I sprinkled the cake with my own dried flowers mix.
In the recipe at Irelandseye.com it says that this cake does not keep very well and therfore should be eaten quickly ;o) Now that I’ve tasted it I should say this should not be a problem at all!
Its best eaten warm with cream or Greek-style yoghurt or even with cheese but I have to admit I did not try the last one…
it was delicious. thx for posting the recipe, ’cause my brother already ordered the cake as his birthday cake ;)
