Dutch Apple Cake

Bake !
I love using fresh fruits in my cakes, be it bananas, oranges, pineapple , apples. there is something about those freshly baked cakes that is hard to resist for your evening tea.
So when i saw this rachel allen recipe on TV, i immediately wanted to try it out. especially since you didn't even have to mash the apples, just slice them up and arrange them on top.
so i got busy trying out this recipe as soon as i could.
But me being me i made a few changes, i switched the white sugar with brown and switched half the refined flour for whole wheat, and voila, a healtheir take of the same cake !

Ingredients:

2 eggs

150 g brown sugar + 1 tbsp for dusting

½ tsp vanilla

2 ½ tsp baking powder

75 ml milk

50 g butter, melted

65 g refined flour

60 g whole wheat flour
½ tsp cinnamon powder

1 apple, peeled and sliced (can use any other fruit)

Method:

Beat the sugar, vanilla and eggs at high speed in a stand mixture until very thick and four times the initial volume, add the melted butter and milk and mix well. Fold in the flour, baking powder and cinnamon powder.

Pour into a well greased pan, arrange the sliced apples on top and sprinkle with 1 tbsp of sugar.

Bake at 200°C for 10 mins and then lower the temperature to 180°C and bake for another 20 minutes
