Toffee Apple Loaf Cake
- Servings: 6 servings
- Cooking Time: 1 hour 30 mins cooking
Ingredients:
For the cake:
300g Princes Apple Slices – save the rest for decorating
175g salted butter
175g golden caster sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 medium eggs
225g self raising flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
25g Greek yoghurt
For the caramel:
100g salted butter
100g double cream
100g soft brown sugar
Sprinkle of sea salt
Cooking Instructions:
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease a 2lb loaf tin and line the base and ends with a long strip of baking paper.
- Beat together the butter, sugar and vanilla until pale, then beat in the eggs, one by one. Tip in the flour, cinnamon and yogurt.
- Chop apples into small chunks, then add to the bowl and mix everything together with a spoon – leave the remaining apple to one side to be used as a garnish later.
- Scrape into the tin and smooth the top. Bake on a middle shelf for 1 hr 20-30 mins until a skewer poked in comes out clean. Cool in the tin.
- To decorate, put the butter, sugar, salt and double cream into a small saucepan. Gently heat, stirring until everything has melted into a smooth caramel sauce. Cool for about 20 min while you gently turn out the cake. Slowly drizzle the toffee sauce over the top of the cake.
- Finely chop the leftover apple slices and sprinkle over the warm toffee sauce.
- Garnish with optional toasted chopped nuts
