This recipe was given to my from my local hairdresser, Jacinta, in Cygnet. You can add an egg to the sponge for a more cake-like texture, if you prefer.
Ingredients
- 4 golden delicious apples, stewed
- 150 g (1 cup) self-raising flour
- 110 g (½ cup) caster sugar
- 125 ml (½ cup) milk
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1–2 tsp finely grated lemon zest
Instructions
Stew the apples with some butter and honey, or as desired, until starting to soften, but not completely soggy. Do it in an ovenproof saucepan (about 1.5 liitres is a good size) or transfer the mixture later.
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Mix the remaining ingredients together and pour over the hot apple. Bake for about 25–30 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
Serve just as it cools, rather than too hot, or at room temperature.
