  • Prep time: 15 minutes  Cooking time: 30 minutes

  • Serves: 8

Ingredients

Sponge

  • 45 ml  SPAR margarine, soft
  • 250 ml SPAR castor sugar (210 g)
  • 3 large SPAR eggs
  • 250 ml SPAR cake flour (120 g)
  • 5 ml baking powder
  • pinch salt
  • 60 ml SPAR milk
  • 410 g can pie apples

Sauce

  • 40  ml SPAR soft margarine
  • 80  ml SPAR crunchy peanut butter
  • 125 ml SPAR milk
  • 250 ml SPAR castor sugar
  • 10 ml  caramel or vanilla essence

Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180° C. Grease a 20cm oven dish.
  2. Beat the margarine, sugar and eggs together thoroughly until fluffy.
  3. Sift the flour, salt and baking powder together directly onto this mixture, and along with the milk, blend together slowly to a smooth batter.
  4. Spoon the canned apples into the prepared oven dish and pour the batter over. Bake for 30 minutes.
  5. Ten minutes before the baking time is up, combine the sauce ingredients in a saucepan, and while stirring, bring almost to the boil.
  6. Pour this sauce over the hot sponge and it is removed from the oven. Set aside for some of the sauce to sink into the sponge.
  • Try substituting the peanut butter with chocolate sandwich spread
  • Prick the sponge all over as it comes out the oven, to encourage maximum sauce penetration.
