Apple Cake

The naturally sweet and tangy apple lends itself well to a delicious range of desserts, and what better way to finish a meal or compliment a cup of tea with some spiced Apple Cake.

Apple Cake recipes tend to use cooking apples as when combined with sugar in a cake they acheive the perfect balance of sweet and tarte. Popular apple recipes ideas to try at home include apple muffins and apple upside down cake.

For an easy apple cake simply add vanilla extract, cinnamon and cooking apples to a standard cake mixture. Serve with a piping hot pot of tea, perfect for winding down on a winters afternoon.
