French Apple Cake

Preheat your oven to 180 degree celcius

For the batter, add flour, sugar, baking powder, pinch of salt to a mixing bowl.

Mix dry ingredients using a whisk then add 2 whole eggs, oil and milk

Continue whisking, until there are no lumps and set aside

Pour into a well buttered non stick cake pan (mould).

Peel and core the apples then cut into eight, dice each wedge into three into pieces.

Place them evenly on top of cake mixture and into the oven and bake for 30 minutes

For frosting: Melt the butter in microwave or a saucepan

In another mixing bowl, add the sugar, and egg.

Mix well using a whisk then add the melted butter.

Add the lemon zest and mix well

Remove cake from oven, (cake should be cooked in centre, check with a skewer first)

Pour the frosting (icing) mixture over the cake, ensure it covers all then replace in oven and bake for another 12 minutes.

Once cooked, leave to cool for 10 minutes. Run a blade along the inside of the cake pan to separate the cake

Tips: If you serve warm, you can choose to serve a slice with a dollop of vanilla ice creme or if served at room temperature, drizzled with some sugar dusting on TOP. Enjoy!
