Apple Cinnamon cake
180 g soft butter, creamed with 150 - 180 g sugar
3 eggs beaten in 1 at the time, some vanilla essence if you like it
90 g ground nuts or almonds, 90 g self-raising flour
if the mix is a bit too solid, add a bit of milk
2/3 of the mix go into a smallish cake tin, stick in slices of 3 apples into the batter, cover with cinnamon/sugar mix and top with the rest of the batter
bake at 175 C fan for about half an hour, check with skewer
enjoy!First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win - Gandhi0 -

Am in awe of some of these beautiful cakes that you all bake, well done ladies, you are an inspiration.
I don't do much in the baking line, other than scones, and savoury dishes, as sweet things end up in the bin, so not worth bothering. Am in the mind to make some meringues though, as I bought some lovely strawberries, and as it's the season just now, I really should make an effort. Does anyone have a foolproof meringue recipe please, as it's been years since I've made them, and no idea what recipe I used? No rush as I won't have time until next week.
My baking this week has been a load of quiches, some cheese and onion, and the others roast onion, pepper and tomatoes with spinach and cheese. Some given to friends, and the rest portioned and into the freezer. Also some lemonade scones, pizza dough and the usual bread making. I normally make cheese and oat bread from the Panasonic book, but made a brown gluten free with seeds this week to try out, as I have a friend who has problems with gluten. It turned out fine, but was heavier than what I normally make, but apparently this is supposedly normal with gluten free bread. Suppose one advantage was that I could only eat one slice rather than two!0 -
