- Wooden spoon
- 17x22cm (7x9") oven proof dish or use a 20cm (8") round oven proof dish
Ingredients
- 650 g firm eating apples (roughly 6 apples, peeled, cored and cut into quarters)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 4 tablespoon water
- 225 g self raising flour
- 115 g caster sugar

- 140 ml milk
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190C/170CFan/375F.
- Peel, core and quarter the apples and place in a saucepan with the ground cinnamon and water. Place on the stove top over a medium-high heat and cook for 4-5 minutes to soften the apples slightly.
- Remove from the heat and transfer the spiced apples to the oven proof dish.
- Place the flour, sugar, salt and margarine in a large mixing bowl and rub together with your fingers until you have the consistency of breadcrumbs.
- Measure out the milk and add the egg, beat together to combine well. Add to the breadcrumb mixture and beat with a wooden spoon, the mixture should be of a thick consistency and can look a bit lumpy, this is normal.
- Spread the mixture over the top of the apples, ensuring the dish is completely covered.
- Place in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, check the mixture is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the sponge, if it comes out clean the cake is cooked.
- Remove from the oven and serve.
Notes
Although Eve's pudding is traditionally made with apples, a combination of pear and ground nutmeg make a nice alternative.
