Apple Slice




Attempted this  'Apple Slice' with some green apples that had been sitting in the fridge, nearly half forgotten!



Spread half the cake  batter onto a prepared cake tin, arrange the apple slices on top of the batter.
Sprinkle on some brown sugar and cinnamon.  Then cover with the remaining cake batter, spread well before putting into the oven.






Although the apple slices have been baked, yet they were still a wee bit crunchy.  The slight sourish taste did blend well with the not too sweet moist cake.  Will pair well with a hot cup of tea or coffee!

Ingredients
  • 6 oz plain flour
  • 6 oz  butter
  • 3 oz caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 medium size green apples - peeled, cored and sliced
  • 1.1/2 flat  tsp cinnamon powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • Some brown sugar
Method
  1. Line a 9 inch sq. spring form tin, set aside.
  2. Cream butter and sugar till light, thick and creamy, add in eggs one at a time.
  3. Stir in sifted flour and 1/2  tsp cinnamon powder.
  4. Spread half the batter over the base of the lined tin.
  5. Place the sliced apples on top of the batter, sprinkle in some brown sugar and remaining cinnamon powder.
  6. Spread the remaining batter evenly over the apple slices.
  7. Bake in preheated oven @ 180 deg C for about 10 mins. or till light golden brown.
  8. Cool in tin for about 10 mins. before cutting up into squares/rectangles, as desired.

    That looks good! I have done something similar before, except I mixed the apples into the batter and after baking, drizzle some lemon icing over it.

    I know that apple slice is no longer a widely popular dessert, but when I was a child everyone ate it. I have a recipe on my blog for it as well. It can be tricky to do because of the sweetness or lack thereof in the apples. Mine is not always successful. Years ago it was served with a thick layer of confectioners' sugar icing. Have a great day. Blessings...Mary

    I have this habit of buying nice apples even though no one at home is eating it and it will end up getting old and wrinkle in the fridge. This will be great dessert to bake with it.

Durian Butter Cake ~ 榴莲牛油蛋糕

  It's the durian season again and I'm sharing with you a simple yet fragrant Durian Butter Cake.  This recipe does not use the traditional butter totally, in fact there is oil too.  Liquid oil tends to make the cake softer and stays moist longer as it does not solidify at room temperature.  This cake is soft and moist with a tinge of durian flavour and aroma.  A breakfast or Tea time snack for those who love durian. Durian Butter Cake ~  榴莲牛油蛋糕 Ingredients 150 gm unsalted butter 190 gm plain flour 2 tsp baking powder 30 ml vegetable oil 85 gm caster sugar 3 'L' eggs 130 gm pureed durian flesh 4 Tbsp milk a pinch of salt 1/4 teaspoon vanilla Method Sift flour with baking powder and salt.  Set aside. Beat butter with sugar till well blended, add in oil and continue beating till pale and fluffy. Add in eggs one at a time, mix well. Add in pureed durian flesh, mix till well incorporated. Sift in again the sifted flour in 2 batches, alternating with the milk.  Fold in till

Chicken Floss Cake ~ 鸡肉松蛋糕

It's normal to find buns coated with meat floss in any bakery, but yet to find a meat floss coated piece of cake.  I saw this Chicken Floss Cake on youtube and was eager to give this a shot.  The recipe is quite similar to a chiffon cake and I was curious to find out the taste which should be slightly sweetish and saltish.  Wouldn't it be weird, I wonder.  But it turned out that the taste is rather unique with a light and soft texture and my family members gave me a thumbs up and asked for more! Chicken Floss Cake ~  鸡肉松蛋糕           Ingredients (A) 4 egg yolks 40 ml oil 50 ml milk 65 gm plain flour, sifted Chicken floss White sesame seeds Chopped spring onions (optional) a pinch of salt (B)  4 egg whites        40 gm caster sugar Method In a bowl, beat egg yolks, add in oil, mix well, then add in milk. Mix in sifted flour till well combined. In another clean bowl, beat egg whites till frothy, then add in sugar in 2 batches and beat til

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.
