FAQ

It is best to use an apple which will hold its shape when baked. Try using apple varieties such as Fuji, Royal Gala, Pink Lady or Granny Smith.

Hi this recipe looks amazing to bake. Could I check if I could bake it as a egg free cake instead like using flaxseed as alternative to egg? Kindly advise thank yoo.
Lauren Matheson says
Hi Joy, we haven't tried this recipe egg free I'm sorry.
Lael says
Hi! Is it possible to use plain flour instead of self raising flour?
Lauren Matheson says
You can use plain flour but you will need to add baking powder.
Kaye says
Just wondering if anyone has made this yummy-sounding loaf using a sugar substitute, like Natvia.
Amy Marsh says

Trudy says
Hello this cake looks really good. What I am really looking for is the Apple and Berry cake you used to have on this website, it was fantastic and made it so many times, but now I can't find the recipe?
Lucy says
I'm so sorry but that one has been deleted!
Helen Tresillian says
Fantastic cake, making it for the second time in two days!!
Will reduce sugar this time and add more fruit.
Penny says
This was so easy to make and so yummy!!
I will certainly add more apple through it next time (as I was disappointed it only used one apple (only because I have a heap to use up). Thank you so much. I actually had a cuppa with my buddy yesterday & she had a bakery brought apple tea cake that I had a piece of & I have to say your recipe I would rate just as yummy if not yummier than that one. Thank you!!
Lucy says
That's fantastic to hear! Thank you so much!!!

Thank you for this wonderful cake. Easy to make and taste good.
Liss says
Oh my! So easy! So delicious!
I’m definitely not a baker by any stretch of the imagination but this turned out perfectly. I only used 50g of sugar and it was plenty sweet enough. I also mixed the apple through at the end with a handful of frozen berries (reverse, speed 4 for about 5 seconds).
My 2 year old now wants cake for breakfast, lunch and tea ?♀️
Lucy says
Fantastic!! We're so glad you enjoyed it!!
Lydia says
