Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can of apple slices, drained (385g)
  • 2 cups self-raising flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 125g butter, melted
  • 1 egg

Topping

  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp all spice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan bake setting) to ensure an even baking temperature.
  2. Mix dry ingredients with apples: In a large bowl, combine the drained apple slices, self-raising flour, 1 cup sugar, cinnamon, and all spice. Stir these ingredients until well distributed.
  3. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the melted butter and crack in the egg. Stir the mixture thoroughly until all components are well combined and form a consistent batter.
  4. Prepare baking tray: Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking, then spread the batter evenly across the tray surface.
  5. Add topping sugar: Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sugar over the top of the batter mixture to create a sweet, slightly crunchy crust once baked.
  6. Bake: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and slice: Remove the slice from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the baking tin to set properly. Once cooled, cut into large pieces for serving.
  8. Store properly: Store the apple slices in an airtight container placed in a cool, dark area to keep them fresh for several days.

Notes

  • Use canned apple slices to save preparation time and ensure consistent texture.
  • Adjust baking time near the end as oven temperatures may vary.
  • For extra moisture, you can add a splash of milk if the batter feels too thick.
  • This slice pairs beautifully with cream or custard for a richer dessert experience.
  • Ensure the slice cools completely before slicing to maintain clean edges.
