Yesterday I tried your recipe and it is absolutely delicious - I think the addition of the ground almonds makes the difference, and it stays so moist! Have just passed it on to my mother so she can try it at the next village fete competition :) Thanks so much for sharing it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194084322902891838.post-24880401544953624512014-02-05T16:07:09.318+00:002014-02-05T16:07:09.318+00:00Have made this twice in three days as it's abs...Have made this twice in three days as it's absolutely scrummy.

I don't use white flour nor white sugar and used 50% wholewheat self-raising flour and 50% organic rye flour. I used only demarera sugar and based the cake tin with apples coated in cinnamon. The whole cake vanished in five minutes and we were left with loads of smiling faces. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194084322902891838.post-82706253002078039712013-02-23T22:39:49.049+00:002013-02-23T22:39:49.049+00:00Made it.
