Ingredients

2 large dessert apples (use 3 or 4 smaller), peeled cored and sliced
½ large lemon, juice and zest, keep separate
225 g self-raising flour
80 g butter, unsalted, softened
2 medium eggs, beaten
1 ¼ tsp mixed spice
1 tsp baking powder
175 g sugar
1 pinch(es) salt
100 ml milk, you may need up to 150ml
150 g mixed dried fruit:, raisins, sultanas, and currants; dried cranberries if liked
icing sugar, for dusting

Instructions

I normally would use Golden Delicious, Granny Smiths, Gala or Braeburn apples. You could use a large cooking apple or two small ones (up to 400g) but you would then need to use an extra 60-70g of sugar.

Preheat oven to Gas Mark 4, 180°C, 350°F.

Grease and line a 8 or 9 inch, 20-23cm loose-bottomed cake tin.

Add the juice of the lemon to a large bowl and toss the apple slices as you go in the juice to prevent browning. Set aside. Mix the zest with the dried fruits in another bowl.

Mix together in a large bowl the flour, spice, baking powder, sugar and salt. Using an electric beater, beat in the butter and eggs and beat in just enough milk to create a batter that just drops from a spoon.

Using a large mixing spoon, mix in the dried fruits and then the apple slices. You can also add any juices from the apples, if any, and mix in to batter.

Spoon batter into the prepared tin and bake for at least 75 minutes (1¼ hours) – I find that I always need to bake this for about 105 minutes (1¾ hours) – or until fully baked and a skewer comes out clean. If the cake looks as if it may be darkening too early whilst still wet inside, cover with foil or thick brown paper for the remaining cooking time.

Turn off the oven and leave the cake in situ for 15-20 minutes with the oven door slightly ajar.

Remove from oven. Use a can of something, an upturned mug etc to support the base of the pan and gently lower the outer shell of the pan. Lift the cake onto a wire rack to cool. Remove lining paper prior to serving. Dust the top of the cake with a light dusting of icing sugar.

Cut into wedges to serve whilst still warm, with cream or freshly made custard. Store remainder of cake on the top shelf of your refrigerator as it will remain quite moist. Warm gently to serve.
