(serves 1 child)
four tart apples (Granny Smith, Bramley are ideal)
1/2 cup apple juice or cider
1 tsp ground cinnamon
dash nutmeg
dash ground cloves
Simply peel and core the apples, then cut into small chunks. Place in a shallow, heavy saucepan and add everything else. Simmer low for perhaps 20 minutes, mashing occasionally with a potato masher. That’s IT.

White and Milk Chocolate Chip Cake
(serves 8)
2 cups all-purpose (plain) flour
3/4 cup sugar (caster)
1 tbsp baking powder
pinch of fresh-grated nutmeg
pinch salt
1 egg
3/4 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup milk
5 tbsps butter, melted
handful white chocolate chips or buttons
handful milk chocolate chips or buttons
Heat oven to 400F/200C. Butter and flour a loaf tin.
In a large bowl, stir together with a fork the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg and salt, combining thoroughly. In a small bowl, beat the egg. Stir in the cream, milk and butter and blend well. Stir the wet mixture into the dry, stirring only until they are combined, not overmixing.
Pour the batter into the loaf tin and sprinkle on the chocolates. Of course, you could substitute semi-sweet chocolate, or butterscotch chips. I made this cake with what I had in my pantry! Bake for about 40 minutes, checking then to see if the center has cooked. Bake until a knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
