APPLE CAKE RECIPE

Apple Cake is a wonderful tasting cake which is good with a cuppa. The taste of apples, raisins, cinnamon and cloves is just sensational. Years ago when people went to each others house for morning tea there was always a cake, it didn't have to be a fancy one just a plain butter cake or this Apple Cake. My dear old mum used to love making this Apple Cake.

Apple Cake Ingredients

1 x 20 oz can unsweetened peeled, sliced apples
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup frozen apple juice concentrate
2 egg whites beaten until stiff peaks form
1 l/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
3/4 cup regular rolled oats
1/4 tsp cloves
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon

Apple Cake Method

In a large bowl add the raisins, apple juice and apples and stir together. After doing that you mix together all the dry ingredients and then add them to the apple mixture. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites. Using a 9 inch round non stick cake pan turn the batter into it and bake in a 350 degree oven for 1 1/4 hours. Remove from oven and cover the Apple Cake with aluminium foil and cool for 10 minutes like this before turning the cake out of the pan. It is really great served with a dab of whipped cream.

Enjoy your freshly made Apple Cake!
