Directions:1. Preheat the oven to 180º C and line an 8"x10" baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
For the apples 1. Peel and dice your apples, then whisk together the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Coat the apples in the mix, then set aside.
For the cinnamon swirl 1. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter with a spoon until fully combined, then set aside.
For the cake 1. In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, and baking powder, then whisk together with a hand whisk until combined. 2. Pour in the milk, vanilla extract, and eggs and whisk until just combined, then gently stir in the butter with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. 3. Fold in your apples, then pour the batter into your prepared tin, spreading it out to the edges. 4. Dollop on the cinnamon mixture (if may need a quick stir if it's separated), then swirl it through the batter with a knife. It should sit on top of the batter, rather than sink to the bottom. 5. Bake for 40-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out mostly clean, with just a few crumbs on it. The cinnamon swirl part should still be wet and gooey whilst it's hot.
For the glaze 1. Whilst the cake is baking, make the glaze. Mix together the icing sugar and milk with a spoon until runny and smooth. 2. Pour the glaze over the warm cake and spread it out evenly, letting it drip down any cracks in the cake (this is the best part to eat!) 3. Let it cool in the tin for around 45 minutes, then slice into 16-20 pieces and enjoy warm or cold. 4. Enjoy! |
