Time 1h

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2-3 apples cored and peeled (I used granny smiths)
250g yogurt (used Apple and Elderflower Rachel's Organic low fat yogurt)
220g Golden Caster Sugar
300g wholemeal Self Raising flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
100ml sunflower oil
3 large eggs
100g butter
2 tablespoons Ground Cinnamon (but really just to taste)
Ground Nutmeg (to personal taste)

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (fan oven) and line a cake tin (try loaf tin)
Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the apples until softening and going golden brown then add the cinnamon and nutmeg and keep on the heat until the apples are very soft do not allow to burn. (I also drained off some of the butter from the pan)
Remove the apples from the heat and put to the side
Meanwhile whisk together the yogurt and sugar
Add the flour and baking powder to the yogurt mix and then add the vegetable oil and eggs mix until well combined
Then add the apples to the mixture and stir until well combined
Pour mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 35mins until a skewer comes out clean and the top is a dark brown colour / has a crack on the surface
Leave to cool in the tin for around 10mins and then cool on a wire rack
