    Submitted by tahyah7 on 4. June 2018 - 09:00.

    Sadly I’ve attempted this cake 4 times and 3 times has been an epic fail in various ways. 1st time it just didn’t cook through the middle but was so dark- almost burnt on top, 2nd time the cake again was just way to soft in the middle and despite leaving it to cool completely- the outside was dry and the middle fell apart when spring form cake pan was opened. 3rd time it was extremely dry again but cooked through.

    The fourth time, i varied recipe and had ok results. I suggest lowering the cooking temp to 160 and baking for 90mins (1hr 30 minutes)- this kept the cake from drying out and burning on top, but gave the middle long enough to cook properly. Definitely don’t pull cake out of pan until cooled completely, it will fall apart! Serve straight from cake pan if you can as it’s just way too soft to transfer onto another cake plate.

    Submitted by Duccle on 28. May 2018 - 11:10.

    Loved this and didn't find it dry at all, even on day two. I used two new-season apples, fresh from the Farmers Markets so maybe that is the secret. We ate some for breakfast on day two and then to eke it out for dessert, I made my go-to Butterscotch Custard to pour over the top, and this turned out to be perfection. Smile I didn't realise until I looked it up to properly credit the recipe owner that it is also one of ArwensThermoPics' recipes. Thank you for both recipes!

    Yummo, it didn't last long in this house! My custard seemed a little runny but was fine once the cake was cooked, probably would cook the custard a little longer next time tmrc_emoticons.)

  • Yummy Apple custard cinnamon

    Submitted by Suzied13@gmail.com on 3. July 2016 - 17:38.

    Yummy Apple custard cinnamon moist cake.  I added an extra 2 minutes to the custard cooking time but everything else exactly as per the recipe.  Would go great with ice cream.  Next time I will add some walnuts & maybe some coconut.

    This was a really nice moist cake, served it warm. The whole family had seconds. I only had 150 grams of butter and it was still lovely. I added 4 apples in total, yum! Thanks for the recipe, I will be making it again.

    Yummy recipe.  I used tinned pie apple and it turned out great.  I thought it would be too much custard but it was perfect after it baked.  This is a keeper for any occasion. tmrc_emoticons.)

    This was really yummy. My nine year old made it himself but forgot to put only half the cake batter in and we ended up with a cake with custard on top but it was still great!

  • It was alittle messy to make

    Submitted by justmixit on 13. August 2014 - 15:26.

    It was alittle messy to make but the outcome was great. My husband loved it. I also added on the extra cooking time to the custard and it turned out fine.  I misread the recipe and chopped the apples for 10 sec instead of 3 apples alittle mushed up but it still worked. It took alittle longer to cook then an hour but I do have an older oven.  I might try it next time with a crumble topping instead of apple and sugar. Will let you know how it goes!

  • This was a lovely moist cake.

    Submitted by cristan on 19. July 2014 - 16:29.

    This was a lovely moist cake. However, the custard didn't thicken enough to be able to spread so I had to transfer the mixture into a saucepan and thicken a little more with about 5grams more cornflour mixed in a little milk. It had to boil before it would thicken to spreadable consistancy. I will try upping the temp. to 90 or even 100 deg. next time and see if that works better. No problems with the rest of the recipe except my cake took 15 mins longer than the 1 hour stated but then everybody's oven is different.
