Been baking a bit more as the weather gets colder. Used up a box mix that had been sitting at the back of the cupboard for Black Forest gateau - yum! Then this week I made this apple cake using some apple puree that had been in the freezer since the last time I had an apple glut. Next project, I think, will be German lebkuchen - it is getting close to Christmas, after all!

The apple cake looks lovely,though I never do the frosting on cakes (why add more sugar?).I'll have to jot it down,thanks.

Crean 100g of butter with 100g sugar.
Slowly add 2 beaten eggs a few drops of vanilla extract.
Add 100g self raising flour, 30mls milk and grated zest of 1 Lemon (optional)
