Hi, today I am sharing an Apple Traybake for any apples that you may need to use up 🙂
Adding the demerara sugar to the top of this cake gives the top a lovely crunch, which I think just finishes the Apple Traybake off.
I really enjoy baking and when it is something that is really easy to do, especially while it is so hot, it is even better. Mixing all the ingredients together in one go and then just folding in the apple at the end is great.
On Tuesday I will be sharing a really easy salad, that do not involve any thing 🙂 how perfect is that!!!
Well, I hope you are able to spend some time in the kitchen this weekend. Let me know what you get up.
If you are like me and have other things planned this weekend, I hope you have a wonderful time and I will be back on Tuesday xx
