This is the kind of old-fashioned dessert that makes everyone go back for seconds…

Soft stewed apples topped with a light, fluffy sponge and served warm with ice cream, cream or custard.

Cosy, simple and exactly the sort of pudding you want on a cold night.

🍎 APPLE SPONGE PUDDING

Serves: 6
Prep: 20 mins
Bake: 30 mins

INGREDIENTS

For the apples
• 6 apples
• 50g caster sugar
• 2 tbs water

For the sponge
• 125g butter, softened
• ½ cup caster sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup self-raising flour
• ¼ cup milk

👩‍🍳 METHOD

Preheat oven to 175°C fan-forced. Grease a baking dish.

Peel, core and chop the apples.

Place the apples, sugar and water into a saucepan and cook for 8–10 minutes until just soft.

Drain any extra liquid and spoon the apples into the baking dish.

Beat the butter and sugar until pale and creamy.

Add the vanilla and eggs and beat until combined.

Fold in the self-raising flour and milk until smooth.

Spoon the sponge mixture over the apples.

Bake for 30 minutes until golden and cooked through.

Serve warm with ice cream, cream or custard.

(Because warm apple pudding and cold ice cream is never a bad idea.)
