MARY BERRY’S BAKING TIPS
10 QUICK AND EASY DESSERT RECIPES
FIND A QUICK AND EASY RECIPE

225g unsalted butter, very soft, plus extra for greasing
175g soft light brown sugar
3 medium eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons malt extract
225g wholemeal self-raising flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons milk
400g Bramley apples, peeled and cut into 1cm chunks
2 dessert apples, peeled and thinly sliced
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon caster sugar
1-2 tablespoons clear honey

Heat the oven to 170ºC (150ºC fan oven) gas mark 3. Lightly grease and line a 20cm round cake tin with baking parchment.
Beat the butter and sugar until fluffy and lighter in colour. Gradually beat in the eggs a little at a time. If about to curdle, beat in 1 tablespoon flour. Beat in the malt extract.
With a large metal spoon, fold in the flour, baking powder and milk, then apple chunks. Turn into tin and level. Toss the dessert apple in the cinnamon and caster sugar. Overlap in a circle on the cake. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Brush with the honey. Cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with clotted cream.
