How To Make Apple, Cinnamon And Walnut Cake
- Serves:
- 8
- Preparation Time:
- 15 minutes
- Cooking Time:
- 55 minutes
- Total Time:
- 1 hour 10 minutes
- Oven Temperature:
- 170° c - 340° f
Step 1: You will need
- ½ tbsp cinnamon
- 250 g sugar
- 400 g flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 10 g baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 4 eggs
- 220 ml vegetable oil
- 4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
- 120 g walnuts, chopped
- 1 sieve
- 1 electric mixer with a flat beater attachment
- 1 rubber spatula
- 1 bowl
- 1 spring-form pan 26cm in diameter, lined with parchment paper
- 1 wooden skewer
- 1 spoon
Step 2: Preheat the oven
Set the oven to 170°C (340°F/ gas mark 3.5).
Step 3: Begin the batter
Into the mixer bowl, add the eggs and sugar. Start mixing it on a low speed, then whip on a medium speed for about 2 minutes.
Step 4: Add the vegetable oil
As soon as the mixture becomes pale and creamy, very slowly add the oil. Don't pour it in too fast or the butter may curdle. When well mixed, turn off the machine.
Step 5: Make the batter
Place the sieve over the bowl and add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Using a spoon, sieve the ingredients into the bowl.
Add the flour mixture to the wet mix in the mixing bowl. Combine on a low speed. Next, add the apples and walnuts and mix for 1 minute. Clean off any batter clinging to the beater attachment and remove the bowl. Using a spatula, finish folding the mixture by hand.
Step 6: Bake
Spoon the mixture into the pan and level out the top. Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 50-55 minutes.
Step 7: Remove the cake
Near the end of the cooking time, test your cake with a wooden skewer to see if it's done. Insert the skewer into the centre of the cake and remove it. If it is free of batter, the cake is ready.
Leave to cool down to room temperature and remove the cake from the pan.
Step 8: Serve
Your Apple, Cinnamon, and Walnut Cake is now ready to serve. It goes perfectly with vanilla ice cream and a cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy!
Tips & Comments
Do you use plain or self raising flour?
yummy Sweet taste
Great cake ,,, my friend Gaynor is a really good cook, but cakes are not normally her forte. However, this one turned out fantastically, though the recipe does say it's for eight, and there was only enough for three of us!!!
i tried this recipe, it tastes really nice - however it took extremely long to cook, i had to take it out after 1hr 10 minutes as was afraid the cake was getting dry! so i have an uncooked middle :(
I haven't tested the recipe, but I am guessing that much flour is used because the amount of apple is generous. The apples, of course, will add a lot of moisture which will be compensated by the flour.
I think 400g is too much flour
YOOOOOOOW.... I've tried this exactly the same as the recipe said... and it's DELICIOUS!!! (^_^) #Ooze
