Apple thingmebobs

I’m not quite sure what to call these yet but these are cinnamony apple thingies in shortcrust pastry.

Made with 4 ingredients – brown sugar, cinnamon, apples, and store-bought puff pastry.

I need to do another bake run to make sure I have the timings and temperatures right (they do look a little too singed for my liking). I also need to do something to make sure the flavours are lip-smackingly good!

I will post the recipe as soon as I’m happy with the results So watch this space!

This cake happened today!

I bought a bowl of plums from the Friday Market for £1 last week with the intention of consuming them purely for my 5-a-day.  Usually the fruit that I get from that particular market stall is sweet and perfect (yes, really!) but surprisingly, these plums were very tart.  I tried eating the fruit but it was REALLY tart (bordering on acidic sourness).

Upside down plum cakeI have written a draft of the recipe for the plum cake.  But I need to work on it because the plums were still so tart even after laying them on a carpet of brown sugar.  I’ll have to tweak the recipe first and make it a few times to make sure it’s a recipe that works.  I promise to share it as soon as I’m satisfied.
