Mulled apple cake
2 HOURS 30 MINUTES + COOLING MAKES 10 SERVINGS | A LITTLE EFFORT
Mulled wine may be the more popular drink at Christmas time but for me it’s all about mulled cider. Infused with spices, it’s a drink that I happily enjoy all winter long. This cake, inspired by the drink and spiced in a similar fashion, is equally warming. It gets its apple flavour from multiple sources: apple purée, chunks of spiced apple, and an apple caramel sauce made from reduced apple juice. You could use cider in place of the juice but the latter lends a stronger flavour.
SPICED APPLE PURÉE
Granny Smith apples 450g, peeled, cored and diced into 1cm pieces
lemon ½, juiced
cloudy apple juice 300ml
cloves 4
cinnamon stick 1
cardamom seeds from 3 pods
nutmeg finely grated to make ¼ tsp
