Well, I decided to make the apple cake as we had some cooking apples to use up before the banana's (and Dave doesn't like banana's so the other cake would only be for me and Henry !!).
450g cooking apples, peeled, cored and cubed roughly
8 tbsp artificial sweetener
low fat cooking spray
100g polyunsaturated margarine
225g plain flour
2 tsp mixed spice
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
2 eggs, beaten
1. Put the apples in the pan with 2 tbsp water and 1 tbsp of the artificial sweetener. Cover and heat gently until they break down to mush, helping them along with a fork or potato masher.
2. Spray a 23cm (9 inch) square tin with low fat cooking spray and preheat the oven to 160C (fan).
3. Rub the margarine into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fresh breadcrumbs. Now mix in the other dry ingredients, including the remaining sweetener. Stir the eggs into the mixture.
4. Put slightly less than half the mixture into the bottom of the prepared tin and spread it round evenly, pushing it into the corners with the back of a spoon. Pour over the apple and then sandwich it with the remaining dough mixture, spread it gently & evenly over the top to cover.
5. Bake for 30 mins or until golden brown and firm to the touch. Allow to cool in the tin and then slice into 10 slices.
