Preparation Time: 15min
Cooking Time: 1hr 30min
Serves: 6
- Heat oven to 160°C/140°C fan/gas 3. Grease a 2lb loaf tin and line the base and ends with a long strip of baking paper.
- Beat together the butter, sugar and vanilla until pale, then beat in the eggs, one by one. Tip in the flour, cinnamon and yogurt.
- Chop apples into small chunks, then add to the bowl and mix everything together with a spoon – leave the remaining apple to one side to be used as a garnish later.
- Scrape into the tin and smooth the top. Bake on a middle shelf for 1hr 20-30min until a skewer poked in comes out clean. Cool in the tin.
- To decorate, put the butter, sugar, salt and double cream into a small saucepan. Gently heat, stirring until everything has melted into a smooth caramel sauce. Cool for about 20 min while you gently turn out the cake. Slowly drizzle the toffee sauce over the top of the cake.
- Finely chop the leftover apple slices and sprinkle over the warm toffee sauce.
- Garnish with optional toasted chopped nuts.
