• Once happy with your mix, pour into the pre-prepared and lined loaf tin making sure to spread evenly. Bake for 50-55 minutes, until golden, risen and so that a toothpick inserted coms out clean. If you notice the top of your loaf is browning too quickly and the inside is still not fully baked. Simply loosely place tin-foil over the top of your loaf so that it does not brown any further or burn.

Once your mixture starts boiling, set your timer for exactly one minute, stirring constantly. You will notice it starts to melt and combine and transform into a caramel-like glaze. Pour straight over your loaf and sprinkle with your toasted pecan nuts.

• Bake the cake for 1 hour or until it is risen and golden and a skewer comes out clean (be careful not to mistake a bit of soft apple for uncooked cake).
• While the cake is hot and still in the tin melt the dulche de leche or caramel in a pan and let it bubble for a minute or two, it will darken a little. Stir in the nuts and then spoon the mixture over the top of the cake. Once the topping and cake have cooled for 5 minutes lift the cake out of the tin and finish cooling it on a rack.
