Supposedly an apple a day keeps the doctor away but sometimes it gets a bit boring just munching into a whole apple so here is where apple cake comes into it's own !! I used heaps of diced {and unpeeled} apples in this one and poured the batter over the top like an apple sponge then drizzled it with icing. The icing had a big squeeze of fresh lime juice in it. I added cinnamon and cloves to the cake batter and for a healthier take there was no butter in it. This healthier take was negated by the frosting sadly though !!
I just read a blog post about apple pie, and now after reading about your apple cake, I want to go home and bake something with apples! Your cake looks yummy, and the icing is totally worth the extra calories :-)
