Bake.A.Cake

Here comes finally the yoghurt + apple cake recipe that the boys & my MIL had baked on Dec. 15th. I hope you'll like it too. Please do let me know if you bake it someday. I had used organic first clear flour (type 110 as we say in France) but it made the cake a bit heavier than my MIL's, who usually uses all-purpose flour.

YOGHURT + APPLE CAKE
NOTE : you will use the yoghurt pot as measure*

ingredients :
1 yoghurt
1 pot* and a half sugar
3 pots* flour
1/2 pot* oil (sunflower for instance)
2 medium or 3 small eggs
20 g vanilla sugar
10 g baking powder
2 apples

Preheat the oven at 200°C.
In a big bowl, empty your yoghurt pot.
Clean it right away to have it as measure for the other ingredients.
Add 1 pot & a half sugar & the eggs & mix in thoroughly.
Add flour one pot at a time, mix in thoroughly, and add the baking powder.
Add the vanilla sugar & oil, mix in thoroughly.
Peel your apples & cut them into 1 cm cubes.
Add them in the bowl & mix in thoroughly.

Butter a round tin (28cm or something)
Pour your mixture in it.
Bake in the oven for 30mn at 200°C.
Have a look at it at the end just to check. (you never know !)

We like to sprinkle a bit of sugar right before eating.
It adds a bit of crunchy. But it's strictly personal !!

* by "a yoghurt pot", I mean the plastic or glass container the yoghurt comes in. In France, they usually weigh 100 or 125 grams.

I finished the 2nd of the 4 mini felt pics I'm custom making. It looks a lot like the one I had made last summer, but the lady requested a similar one, so I had to make it look alike.I have to make the two other ones within the end of the weekend so I'll be able to ship them on Monday morning.

Just baked my usual prune + oatflakes muffins, and we'll have these for the next days' breakfasts. We baked & cooked a lot thes past two weeks, and everything was great & yummy. I probably should write down the list of what we wanted to do & did cook/bake, at least for the record. Of course, this didn't do good on our waistline ... ahem. LOL Well, better go now, it's 05.30pm but it feels like 09pm, I'll turn the heat on in the bathroom soon. We kept two big leaves of cabbages the other day for the boys to use them as boats in their bath. (they usually don't take bath, but showers, so that's a treat) Take good care everyone ! xoxo hugs

PS : what do you think of the new look here ? A bit in my "Less is More" mood, I suppose, and in wintery hues as well. I've decided to show a bit bigger photos too, and I think it looks better this way.
