Apple cake
This apple cake starts with a light, airy batter built from beaten eggs and sugar, then folded with self-raising flour and melted butter. Diced apples are mixed throughout the batter, with thin slices arranged on top for a pretty finish. Spiced with vanilla and cinnamon, it bakes up golden and tender, ready for a dusting of powdered sugar. It's a straightforward cake, perfect for an afternoon treat.
