Monday was my turn to provide the goods for Bake Monday. As work’s resident pseudo-Scandinavian, it was a no brainer that my offering would offer a taste of the North. With the added challenge of meeting a low fat need, only one thing came to mind…

Ingredients

• 4 apples
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup caster sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar
• 3 eggs
• Cinnamon
• 1 tsp ground cardamom

Method

1. Slice the apples and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
2. In a bowl combine the eggs and sugar and whisk until creamy.
3. Sift in the flour, cardamom and vanilla sugar. Mix well.
4. Pour the batter into a lightly greased tart tin, arrange the apple slices and sprinkle with more cinnamon.
5. Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
6. Once cooled, sprinkle with icing sugar.
