Aussie cinnamon and apple teacake is a delightful and easy-to-make dessert that perfectly combines the tart sweetness of apples with the warm, comforting aroma of cinnamon. This traditional Australian treat is ideal for afternoon tea or a cozy dessert for any occasion.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Peel the apples, core them, and cut them into thin slices. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed butter and sugar. Beat until well combined.
- Add the self-raising flour gradually to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the flour. Mix until just combined to avoid overmixing.
- Grease and flour a round 8-inch (20cm) cake tin.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake tin and spread it evenly.
- Arrange a layer of apple slices over the batter.
- Sprinkle 1/2 tsp of cinnamon evenly over the apple layer.
- Pour the remaining batter over the apple layer and spread it out.
- Arrange the remaining apple slices on top and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tsp of cinnamon.
- Place the cake tin in the middle rack of the preheated oven.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp apples for the best texture and flavor in your teacake. Granny Smith apples are a great choice due to their tartness, which complements the sweetness of the cake.
- Make sure to evenly coat the sliced apples with cinnamon before adding them to the batter to ensure a consistent flavor throughout the teacake.
- For a moister cake, substitute part of the milk with applesauce. This will add an extra depth of apple flavor as well.
- If you prefer a spicier flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or cloves to the cinnamon for a more complex spice profile.
- To test if the teacake is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, your cake is ready to be taken out of the oven.
- Let the cake cool in the baking pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help keep the cake intact and maintain its texture.
With its simple preparation and delicious flavors, the Aussie cinnamon and apple teacake is sure to become a favorite in your household. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.
