Ginger & Apple Cake

(photo to come the next time I make it!)

5.5 oz Butter

6 oz Soft Brown Sugar

2 Tablespoons of Black Treacle

8 oz Plain Flour

1 Teaspoon Baking Powder

2 Teaspoons Ground Ginger

2 Teaspoons Bicarb

5 fl oz Milk

1 Beaten Egg

2 Apples (use Bramleys) peeled, chopped and sprinkled with lemon juice (not essential - like... don't rush out to the shops if you don't have any).

OVEN 160 • Use a 10" Round or 9" square tin

Melt butter, sugar and treacle together and leave to cool.... Sieve flour, bicarb and baking powder, ginger...Stir in milk, egg and cooled liquid and apples. Spoon into tin... Cook for 1 Hour at 160... Knife test after 50 minutes

You can serve this warm as a pudding with Creme Fraiche, Greek Yoghurt, Double Cream or Ice Cream... or, in my case, all 4! Well at least two!!
