BLACKBERRY & APPLE CAKE

Believe me this is totally delicious especially served with low fat custard.


Serves 8

Ingredients:

175g self raising white flour
2 tsps baking powder
75g polyunsaturated margarine (I use Lurpak Lighter)
50g ground almonds
75g caster sugar
2 eggs
6 tbsps apple juice
few drops of vanilla essence
1 cooking apple, chopped
100g blackberries
1 tbsp demerara sugar

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 190c. Line a 20cm loose bottomed cake tin with greaseproof paper.

In a large bowl, beat together the flour, baking powder, margarine, ground almonds, caster sugar, eggs, apple juice and vanilla essence.

Fold in the apple and blackberries then spoon the mixture into the tin. Sprinkle the demerara sugar over then bake for 45 minutes - 1 hour or until golden and firm to the touch.

Turn out on to a wire rack and leave to cool - mine doesn't usually last long enough for this to happen.

Points per serving : 4
Not suitable for freezing.

Oh that sounds good! We have a Hollies blackberry & apple crumble in the freezer which we might have to get out. I won't be anywhere near as good, but will be less work for Judy!!
