4 eggs
170g sugar
130g flour
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder

peel, core and slice apples/pears
mix all the ingredients in a bowl
pour in cake tin
cook in oven at 200C for 40 minutes

edit: it freezes fine too

You can make that even easier with an all in one mix, as long as you want to eat the cake immediately.

Whack all the ingredients above in a bowl and mix together until light and fluffy. Cook as advised above. Fine for two days but gets stodgier than the traditional mix after that.

Add a bit of cocoa in place of a couple of teaspoons of flour, or a couple of teaspoons over very very strong instant coffee (enough water to melt the granules but no more) and take out a spoon of sugar if you want to make flavoured cakes.

it doesn't take long this way anyway i've added in grated carrot before, but for chocolate cakes i make muffins we usually have them for 3-4 days as me and hubby don't really eat cakes (we eat muffins tho i love raspberry muffins so make my own)

pop them back in, also when i lift buns out i always leave them in the hot bun tray for 5-10 mins, if you push down on the top it shud move but be firm not squidgy

I have put them back in for about 15 mins and they are still wet? thats about 45 - 50 mins now, have i done something wrong? When you pull the case off, the muffin sticks to the case
