Ingredients:

2/3 cup butter
150g
2/3 cup sugar
130g
3 eggs
150g
1/4 cup honey
60g
1 cup self-raising flour
150g
4 apples
640g
1 tsp brown sugar
5g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a muffin tin or small cake molds with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Set aside.
- Measure out the butter, sugar, eggs, honey, and self-raising flour.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugar:
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add the Eggs:
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
5. Mix in the Honey:
- Add the honey to the batter and mix until well combined.
6. Fold in the Flour:
- Gently fold in the self-raising flour until the mixture is just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
7. Assemble the Cakes:
- Spoon a small amount of batter into the bottom of each muffin cup or mold.
- Arrange a few apple slices on top of the batter in each cup.
- Spoon the remaining batter over the apple slices, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
- Place additional apple slices on top of each cake and sprinkle with a little brown sugar.
8. Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cakes are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool and Serve:
- Allow the tea cakes to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm or at room temperature with a drizzle of honey if desired.
Note: The stated baking time is an estimate. You may need to adjust according to your oven's performance.

Tips:

- For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.

- Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor profile; Granny Smiths add a delightful tartness while Honeycrisps offer extra sweetness.

- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting; this helps them combine more smoothly.

- Be sure to peel and finely chop the apples so they mix evenly into the batter and cook through.

- If you don't have self-raising flour, you can make it by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

- You can garnish the top with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a drizzle of additional honey before serving.
