  This really is as squidgy and delicious as it sounds. A real winner of a cake and so easy to make. I've also tried it with pears and it worked brilliantly. It's a great way to use up fruit slightly past its best. I've convinced myself it's also the perfect way to fit in another one of my five a day....

  What a lovely cake, everything you say it will be, I loved the crunchy top, the spices though I do have to admit to swapping the quantities around as we adore cinnamon but you still got that almost christmassy flavour with the spices, lovely a definite keeper.

  I use 300g apples after peeling and substitute some of the sugar for honey in the mix. Very yummy.

  Gorgeous. Just made it for the second time to eat tomorrow night. Love that you can cook a couple of days in advance. Topping a bit fiddly (honey & demerara sugar) but overall easy peasy to make.

  A lovely cake, moist, full of flavour and easy to make. Keeps for a few days-actually improves- and is excellent warmed and served with cream for a real treat. Make sure you use DARK brown sugar as this gives it a rich colour and flavour. I'm going to try adding a few sultanas as well next time - a bit like the taste of dutch apple pie!

  This cake is delicious and so easy to make. I'm making it for Christmas instead of a Christmas cake it's that good! It's great served warm with cream or ice cream.

  Excellent! Great recipe - easy to make, moist and delicious. This makes a wonderful dessert especially when warmed and served with cream or ice cream - good enough for any dinner party. Keeps well for a few days (if you hide it!). Now a family favourite and perfect for the glut of apples we have this autumn.
