I was trying to work out how to use up 6 slightly soft apples and a few wrinkly satsumas - this was the perfect solution (especially as I had no eggs in the fridge).
Ingredients:
650g apples (any type), peeled, cored and cut into small chunks
100g brown sugar
100g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
50g chopped nuts
50g sultanas (optional)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
Juice of 4 satsumas or 1 lemon
Method:
Mix the apple with the juice in a large bowl. In a different bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, spices and nuts. Mix well with the apple until there are no floury bits - add a little warm water if it doesn't turn into a cake-like consistency.
Grease a large cake tin or square tray with vegetable oil or butter. Fill the tin with cake mixture and spread.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180 degrees C for around 1 hour (the apple makes the mixture quite wet so it needs this long - if it starts to burn, cover with aluminium foil). Serve warm.
