Apple Cake #Trovechallenge

On Friday, the beginning of a long weekend in New Zealand Trove issued me a challenge on twitter. To be fair it wasn't just to me they issued said challenge, but hey.

anyway, not being one to shy away from a challenge I was in. Right there, the second they tweeted.


The recipe, an Apple Cake, had been submitted to the Queensland Country Life, a weekly newspaper filled with local rural Queensland news and events, for the Thursday, 1 April edition and appeared on page 7.

So, the pantry was checked for ingredients, and apples were purchased from the supermarket. Let the challenge begin !

And here are the results, kind of like a supersized apple shortcake in cake form.


...and D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S !!

we had ours for dessert, with some yoghurt on the side instead of cream.
