How to make the perfect Dorset Apple Cake

[Goldistheanswer]

When we’ve been on holiday we’ve always enjoyed Dorset Apple Cake with a non calorific 🤣 serving of clotted cream on the side. Has anyone got an easy recipe please? I’m not a confident baker so it has to be fairly simple to follow but with mouth watering results, obviously!

This was pretty easy & delicious. I had never made it before but had loads of apples in the fruit bowl & Googled Apple cake & it came up with this. I portioned it & froze half & it defrosted well.

Ooh thanks. That looks nice. I never think of using that website but I will now. I’m off to buy some apples.

I second this recipe, which I have tried. I generally find the BBC Good Food recipes really good. Good luck!

Thanks, I can’t wait to give it a try. It’s just the weather for cakes like this.

Unless you are living in a large city dont buy apples if you're cooking with them. At this time of year people are giving them away everywhere for free. Between my house and the village shop there are at least four houses with boxes of apples outside saying "help yourself". I'm sure your cake will be lovely

Not a Dorset apple cake but Mary Berry does a wonderful apple Desert cake. Very simple but so good.. no idea how to do a link but its there if you Google it

Thanks everyone. I can’t wait to try making one. Shall I save you all a slice?

Oo thanks for this OP. I needed a baking idea for tomorrow and apple cake has been on my to-try list for ages!

You’re very welcome FromThe Allotment please let me know how it turns out.

I used a Mary Berry recipe and DH described it as probably the best cake he’s ever had

How about yours, Goldistheanswer?
