Main ingredient: apples

Pairs well with: coffee, vanilla ice cream, fresh berries, whipped cream

Serving count not stated for this recipe, so quantities are shown as written.

Ingredients

  • 4 medium apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup sour milk, kefir or buttermilk
  • Butter, for greasing the pan
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan or pie dish and line the base with baking paper if you like.
  2. Arrange the apple slices evenly over the base of the prepared pan and sprinkle with the cinnamon, if using.
  3. Beat the eggs and sugar together in a bowl until pale and slightly thick.
  4. Stir in the sour milk until combined.
  5. Add the flour, salt and baking soda and stir just until a smooth, pourable batter forms; do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter evenly over the apples, spreading it gently so every slice is covered.
  7. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the top is deep golden and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out or slice directly from the dish. Serve warm or at room temperature, plain or with a little cream.
