Savor delicate cakes topped with homemade compote.
Ingredients:
  • 200g unsalted butter, at room temperature, chopped
  • 155g (3/4 cup) caster sugar
  • 1 lemon, rind finely grated
  • 8.80 gm vanilla extract
  • 3 eggs
  • 150g (1 cup) self-raising flour
  • 41.20 gm milk
  • 3 (about 495g) Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, chopped
  • 40.00 gm water
  • 500g strawberries, washed, hulled
  • 24.00 gm icing sugar
  • 21.00 gm lemon juice
Instructions:
  • For the strawberry & apple compote, simmer apple with water in a saucepan until soft. Puree, then add strawberries, icing sugar, and vanilla. Cook covered until strawberries soften. Stir in lemon juice, then chill in the fridge. Enjoy!
  • Preheat your oven to 180C. In a bowl, use an electric beater to whip together the butter, sugar, lemon rind, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs one at a time, making sure to beat well after each addition.
  • Gently combine the flour and milk in alternating batches using a large metal spoon until just mixed. Divide the batter among twelve 5.5cm square non-stick muffin pans, smoothing the tops. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden and springy. Allow to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with the compote.
