Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and line a round 9-inch (23 cm) cake tin with parchment paper.
- Peel, core, and slice the apples thinly.
- Toss the apple slices with the lemon juice in a bowl to prevent browning.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sugar over the apples and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and 1/3 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add in the vanilla extract and the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Gradually add in the self-raising flour and all-purpose white wheat flour, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the flour mixture.
- Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spread half of the batter evenly in the prepared cake tin.
- Arrange half of the apple slices over the batter and top with half of the raspberries.
- Spread the remaining batter over the fruit layer.
- Arrange the remaining apple slices and raspberries on top of the batter.
- In a small bowl, mix the 1 tablespoon of corn flour, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/3 cup of brown sugar together.
- Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the cake.
- Place the cake tin in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- If the top starts to brown too quickly, cover with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
- Allow the cake to cool in the tin for about 15 minutes.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve the Apple and Raspberry Crumble Tea Cake warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
Tips:
- 1. Choose firm apples, such as Granny Smith, for a nice contrast in texture and flavor.
- 2. Allow the butter to soften at room temperature before using it to ensure smooth mixing.
- 3. Toss the raspberries in cornflour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
- 4. Use fresh lemon juice for a brighter and fresher flavor.
- 5. If you prefer a stronger cinnamon flavor, feel free to add an extra half teaspoon.
- 6. Test the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean or with just a few crumbs attached.
- 7. Let the cake cool completely before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop.
This Apple and Raspberry Crumble Tea Cake is a delightful combination of sweet and tart flavors, complemented by a buttery, crunchy crumble topping.
