Ingredients

  • 1½ cups self-raising flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar, tightly packed
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup sultanas (I used currants but you could probably use any diced dried fruit)
  • 2-3 apples, peeled and sliced thinly
  • 125 g melted butter (4 oz)
  • caster sugar, and extra cinnamon if you like

Instructions

  • Grease and line a 20cm/8 inch springform pan.
  • Preheat oven to 180℃/350℉.
  • Melt butter and allow to cool a little.
  • Mix dry ingredients - flour, sugar, ensuring all flour becomes brown-ish. Unlike the hand-written recipe I added the cinnamon to the dry ingredients too, and then sprinkled more on top. This was totally tasty.
  • Add fruit to the dry ingredients and mix well.
  • In a separate bowl, beat eggs with a fork until lightly frothy.
  • Add eggs and melted butter to the mixture and mix well. The mix will be quite dense, don't worry.
  • Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle with caster sugar and extra cinnamon.
  • Bake for 40 minutes or until cake comes away from sides of pan and a skewer comes out clean.
