Mary Berry’s Apple & Cinnamon Loaf.

I saw it on tv last night, there was nothing in it that I don’t like- apples,cinnamon, had to try. Lovely recipe, easy and quick, made it and whacked it in the oven in no time, while Izzlett was napping.

I used about 40 g of soft butter which I whizzed with 100 g of self raising flour and 50 g of brown sugar. Added a generous tsp of cinnamon, then 1,5 chopped apples ( I had pink lady in the fruit bowl, worked nicely) and 2 eggs, lightly beaten. All this went into a loaf tin, topped with thinly sliced apples and some brown sugar sprinkled on them. Baked in 180 degrees for about 40 minutes.

Mary suggested warmed apricot jam glaze after it cooled a bit, I used maple syrup. Yum!
