Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a 23cm loose-bottomed cake tin with baking parchment. In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and sugar until thick and pale, about 5 mins. Pour in the oil and stir well to combine.

  • step 2

    Sieve in the dry ingredients and fold through until the mixture is smooth and well combined before adding the apples.

  • step 3

    Carefully pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 45-50 mins. Leave to cool slightly before turning out onto a cooling rack. Once the cake is cool, dust with icing sugar and cinnamon.

I made this wonderful cake at the weekend with my children, we absolutely loved it.

I used Royal Gala and it was perfectly baked, apple pieces evenly distributed, but the cocoa didn't do it any favours. If I make it again I will leave it out.

An excellent cake. Was looking for a recipe with ought butter and only once I'd started did I realise it was chocolate. I was generous with the spices. But then I always find recipes are too conservative. I used granny Smith and the result was perfect. Light, flavoursome. Thank you

Did not like baked for one and half hours apple sunk to the bottom . Cooked through though too sweet . If trying bake longer slightly lower temp.

Turned out quite gooey - tastes nice but too wet to eat like cake. More like a pudding!
