Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • cup fat free greek yogurt
  • ½ cup sugar I used golden caster sugar
  • cup all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp demerara sugar optional
  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 340oF / 180oC / 150oC Fan. Line and grease a 23 cm cake tin.
  • Core and slice the apples and set aside. 
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the low fat spread and the caster sugar/superfine sugar until it is smooth and pale. Add the egg. Sieve the flour and baking powder and salt into the mix and whisk until smooth.
  • Add the yogurt and mix to incorporate. 
  • Scrape the mixture into your prepared cake tin and smooth down the top with a spatula. Place the apple slices in a spiral on the top of the cake and sprinkle over the demerara sugar (if using) and cinnamon. 
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40 - 45 minutes until golden brown and a skewer inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean. 
  • Remove from the oven and leave to cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.
  • This cake is fantastic served warm with a scoop of low fat/ low sugar ice cream such as Halo Top.
