1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
l/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. mixed spice (or apple pie spice)
8oz. cooking apple, cored, peeled and chopped
6 Tbsp. unsalted butter
3/4 cup soft light brown sugar
Finely grated rind of 1 small orange
2 large eggs, beaten
l/2 tbsp. milk
Whipped cream dusted with cinnamon, to serve

For The Topping
4 eating apples, cored and thinly sliced
Juice of 1/2 orange
l/2 tsp. caster sugar (superfine sugar)
l/3 Tbsp. apricot jam, warmed and sieved



Recipe



1.Preheat the over to 180°C/350°F/ Gas 4. Grease and line a 23cm/9-inch round removable cake pan. Sift the flours, baking powder and spices together in a bowl.

2.Toss the chopped cooking apple in 30ml/2 Tbsp. of the flour mixture.

3.Cream the butter, brown sugar and orange rind together until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs, then fold in the flour mixture, the chopped apple and the milk.
