Autumn heralds the start of the apple season. If you fancy a change from crumble, pie or baked apples, try this apple and almond cake – with the addition of ground almonds and almond essence it’s a bit like a frangipane. Pick firm dessert apples, a mixture of varieties, as they won’t get too soft during cooking, or if using cooking apples you might wish to add a sprinkle of sugar and poach them for a little less. I like to bake in my Kamado Joe. You want to set your BBQ up for an indirect cook at a temp of approximately 160°C.
You will need a 23cm diameter baking tin, or a terracotta dish will be fine. You don’t need to turn out the cake – just dive straight in with a big spoon, making sure you get all the apples and juices from the bottom of the dish!
