How to Make Autumn Apple Sponge Cake
- Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan/Gas Mark 4). Grease and flour a 20cm round cake tin.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Peel, core, and dice the apples. Gently fold them into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with icing sugar before serving (optional).
