Ingredients

2 large	eggs
150 g	caster sugar, plus 1 tbsp to sprinkle on top
100 g	butter
½ tsp	vanilla extract
4 tbsp	milk
150 g	plain flour
½ tsp	ground cinnamon
2 ¼ tsp	baking powder
2 medium	cooking apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
	double cream to serve

Instructions

Preheat oven to Gas Mark 8, 400°F, 200°C.

Line the base and sides of an 8×8 inch, 20x20cm square cake tin with baking parchment.

Whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl until thick and the whisk leaves a trail, about 5 minutes with an electric whisk.

Melt butter in a medium pan with the milk, and then pour onto eggs, whisking continuously. Sift in flour, cinnamon and baking powder and fold carefully into the batter, breaking up any flour lumps.

Pour into prepared tin and smooth surface.

Arrange apple slices over batter – they will sink to the bottom during cooking. Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to Gas Mark 4, 350F, 180C and bake for another 20-25 minutes or until well risen and golden brown.

Remove from oven and allow to cool in the tin. Cut into 2-inch, 5cm squares to serve, warm with cream.
