Felt like some apple cakes, and realised I hadn’t tried any yet as small muffins or fairy cakes. So, adapted my blueberry muffin recipe slightly and made some very tasty cakes.

125g – caster sugar (but will try brown sugar next time)

125g – plain flour

55g soft butter

130g – grated apple with skin on (2 gala apples in this case)

1 – egg

1 – big tbs cloudy honey

1 tsp – baking powder

1/4 tsp – bicarbonate of soda

Cinnamon

Cream the butter and sugar together, add egg, honey and cinnamon, mix until smooth.

Add the apple, and more cinnamon until combined.

Add the flour and baking power and bicarb, mix thoroughly until ready to be spooned into paper cases, or a greased muffin tray.

Bake for around 20-25 minutes at 180°c, until well browned. Then leave to cool, and eat.
