Cranberry apple cake BBQ recipe

Cranberry Apple CakeThe warm baked scent of this fruit-studded cake is the stuff memories are made of.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup sugar

  • 3 egg yolks, beaten

  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice (juice of 1 lemon)

  • 1 cup flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 3 ounces milk

  • 3 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced

  • 1/2 cup cranberries, fresh or frozen

  • 1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

  • 1-1/2 teaspoons sugar

  • Powdered sugar (optional)

  • Vanilla ice cream (optional)

Method

  • Whip sugar and egg yolks until creamy; add lemon juice and mix well. Fold in flour and baking powder; add milk and mix to make a smooth batter. Grease an 8 x 8 x 1-3/4-inch heavy-duty aluminium pan (or fireproof casserole, or 9-inch springform pan).

  • Place apples and cranberries in a medium bowl. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar; toss to coat.

  • In baking pan, layer half of the batter, half of the fruit mixture, remaining half of batter, then the remaining fruit mixture.

  • Place an empty baking pan upside down in the centre of the cooking grate. Place cake on inverted baking pan. Grill for 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife tip inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from grill and let rest for about 5 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Makes 6 servings.

Note: Cake can be made with pears, peaches, or plums instead of apples, and blackberries in place of cranberries.
