  • Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of demerara sugar evenly over the top and bake the cake in the centre of the oven for 1 hour until it is well-risen and golden on top.
  • Test the cake by inserting a knife into the centre, it should slide easily through the apples in the middle and come out clean.
  • Leave the cake to cool for 10 minutes before removing it from the bowl and carefully peeling off the baking parchment.
  • Dust with sifted icing sugar and serve warm with a little vanilla ice cream.
