Caramel apple cake
SERVES 10
125g (4½oz) unsalted butter,
softened, plus extra for buttering
397g (14oz) tin of Carnation Caramel
2 medium free-range eggs
225g (8oz) self-raising flour, sifted
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
300g (10½oz) Bramley apples,
peeled, cored and diced
2 tbsp essential Waitrose Semi-
skimmed Milk
1 tbsp demerara sugar
1 Preheat the oven to 150ºC/Gas Mark
- Place the butter with 225g (8oz) of
the caramel in a large bowl and beat
with an electric whisk until combined
well. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
2 Sift over the flour, baking powder and
cinnamon. Fold together, then gently
stir in the apple and the milk.
3 Lightly butter and base-line a 20cm

cake mix, smooth the top and scatter

place on a serving plate. Warm the rest
of the caramel in a small saucepan over
a low heat until pourable, then drizzle
over the top of the cake. Serve, cut into
wedges, with a dollop of whipped
cream or a scoop of ice cream.
