  I was looking for a quick cake to bake during a Sunday afternoon which would use up some apples, this was the perfect thing! It was easy and delicious, and will definately make again.

  Easy to make but took ages to cook, at least 20 mins longer to cook than the recipe stated. We ate ours cold like a cake and it was moist and tasty. Nice apple flavour. I can imagine the pear one mentioned above would be delicious too!

  Very tasty, hot or cold. Will put some cinnamon in next time for a slight variation.

  so far this is my favourite way to store this season's apples; the freezer is full of these traybakes, which have seemed just as yummy once defroster. i'm hoping it's also a good way to use up the apples i've blanched and frozen ...

  tried this today but added a teaspon of mixed spice and teaspoon of cinnamon..its ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! one thing though, the mixture was a lot and spilled out of the tin and into the bottom of my oven, which im going to clean up now! Either use half the mix or use a bigger tin than the one stated. The cke is really crumbly and moist...YUMMY!!!

  OMG, what a beautiful recipe.. Made a mistake in putting almond extract in instead of vanilla, but what an excellent addition, along with cinnamon sprinkled over the apple. Definately a family favourite now.

  A great way to use up my apples from the garden. It was great with ice cream or custard. I did have FAR too much batter though so would perhaps use a bigger tin than suggested. My 3 and 5 yr old loved it.

  I have just made this and I can't believe how simple it is to make and how moist the sponge is! A real winner. 4 stars awarded as I think I will add some mixed spice or cinnamon next time, but as a first try, this is fab.

  Delicious cake and easy to make. I added some cinnammon to the mixture and sprinkled a little over the first layer of apples which has given a lovely added taste. Will make again.

  Hi made this today. It was loved by all the family. I did put in an extra layer of ordinary sugar as the apples were a bit bitter. I will certainly be making it again.

  All I added to the recipe was a teaspoon of mixed spice. It was lovely and moist and so easy to make. I did mix the caster sugar and butter together first, then added the eggs and vanilla extract, before adding all the dry ingredients. The cake is delicious.

  Lovely recipe & very easy, I made it with Granny Smiths which worked fine. We have been having it heated up with some cream - yum yum.

  Having taken note of some of the comments I replaced 100g of flour with ground almond and threw some cut up chunks of left over marzipan on the top and it was really delicious!

  Very easy to make and delicious to eat! I tried baking it in a silicone baking tray, without much success as it stuck to the tray a bit. Will use a traditional tin in future. Definitely will make this one again - took some into work and everyone wanted second helpings!

  Lovely recipe, came out perfect first time. I added a little milk to make a smoother mix and next time will try some cinnamon. Perfect with some good vanilla ice cream :-)

  Hmm this cake tasted nice BUT it certainly took alot longer then the time stated. For 2 reasons I think, firstly I dont think the cake tin is big enough; it needs to be alot deeper. And secondly, because the apples are so wet from the lemon jucie; which I think draws the water in the apples out. So therefore the cake needs longer cooking time. Will I try again?? probably not, I have far better apple cake recipes I can use.
