Instructions

▢
Melt the 50 g of butter into a saucepan and fry the apples until golden and tender. Set these to one side for now.
▢
Preheat the oven to 180C/gas mark 4. Line and grease the insides of two 23cm round cake tins.
▢
Using an electric mixer if you have one, or a hand blender, whiz up the 175g butter, honey, dark brown sugar, and caster sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time until blended.
▢
Sieve the flour, bicarb, spices, and salt together. Mix the sugar mixture into the dry mixture a little at a time, alternating with the milk, until everything is smooth and fully combined.
▢
Stir the walnuts in, along with the apples until everything is mixed. Divide this between the two cake tins and spread evenly.
▢
Cook these cakes for around half an hour or until firm. Leave the Best Korean rice cooker on for your candied walnuts. Cool the cakes on a wire rack.
