Apple & Blackberry Cake

All you need for an autumn afternoon. The fruit baked into the crust makes this cake, adding a fresh, no frills instant icing that makes it so damn pretty too.

It's naturally gluten free, but do swap out the buckwheat flour for regular if that's what you'd rather. It's simple to make, and hard to mess up, the batter is fairly amenable if you fancy adding a different flour, and the children love finishing it off by pushing the fruit into the batter.

The cinnamon buttery topping is what gives it a blessed golden top, and means the fruit stays juicy and never wrinkles and dries out.

      RECIPE

  • 3 apples
  • 200g blackberries
  • 150g unsalted butter
  • 80g coconut sugar
  • 160g Buckwheat flour
  • 100g almonds
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Plus 1 tbsp sugar, butter and tsp ground cinnamon for topping

 METHOD

Preheat the oven to 170 

Cut the apples and core them, if you really must peel them do, but I much prefer the skins on for aesthetics and fibrous reasons. Slice into 1/8ths and put all the apple pieces into a bowl of cold water with a spritz of lemon juice to stop them oxidising and going brown ahead of their time.

Blend together the softened butter and sugar, until smooth.

Add the whisked eggs and vanilla extract.

Combine the flours, cinnamon and baking powder in a bowl together, and then sift into the butter mixture, just until thoroughly mixed. You don't want it to be over-worked and toughened.

Grease / line an 8inch cake tin. Scrape the batter into it, and decorate with the apple slices, pushing the pieces slightly into the mixture, and then adding blackberries as you fancy.

With the remaining butter, cubed, dot evenly over the fruit and sprinkle over the sugar and cinnamon.

Bake for 30-40 minutes until risen and golden and a skewer comes out clean.

Serve with a generous dollop of crème fraîche, a squeeze of lime and some extra berries if you have them on the side.

Like all the best cakes it works beautifully as a tea-time standalone, but is chic enough for serving after dinner, and just deemed righteous enough to have for breakfast or 11s with a coffee.

Hello, my name is Rachel Frye and I want to give this testimony in respect of Dr. Odunga who made me win $2 Million Dollars in Lottery by matching the 5 numbers for me. I am happy to be out of financial debt and be able to help my family in these seasonal period of fun and cheer. I contacted Dr. Odunga through Whats-App (+2348167159012) when I told him to help me win the Mega Millions and He told me that it would be spiritually checked if I will win the Lottery. When he informed me that I will not be able to win the Jackpot but I will win huge amount in the lottery I was not completely sad but had great faith in him. I live in Freeland, Saginaw County, Michigan and I would say it was pretty hard to send him the money for the spell before he gave me the winning numbers to play. He sent me the numbers and I played. The next morning after the drawing, I matched the five white balls in the Aug. 4 drawing to win $1 million: 11-30-45-52-56. Thanks to the Megaplier X2, my prize was multiplied to $2 million. Thank You Dr Odunga for this wonderful experience with you. You too can contact Dr. Odunga at his Whats-App +2348167159012 or Email: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
