Main ingredients

  • 200 g self-raising flour the base that gives your cake its soft structure
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder helps your cake rise nice and fluffy
  • 150 g caster sugar sweetness that will blend perfect with cider and apples
  • 100 g unsalted butter softened, adds richness to every bite
  • 2 large eggs bind the batter and keep everything together
  • 100 ml Somerset cider gives that authentic tangy flavor
  • 2 apples peeled, cored, chopped; bring juicy bits and nice texture
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon spice it up without going overboard
  • 50 g chopped walnuts optional; for crunchy nuttiness

Instructions

  • Grease and flour a 20cm cake tin so your cake wont stick around longer than its supposed to.
  • Cream the softened butter with the caster sugar until its light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, keeping the batter smooth and well combined.
  • Sift in the self-raising flour and baking powder, then fold gently to keep air in.
  • Stir in cinnamon, chopped apples, walnuts if using, and Somerset cider.
  • Pour everything into the prepared tin and smooth the top so it cooks evenly.
  • Place the cake tin on the trivet inside your pressure cooker. Seal the lid, ensure the sealing ring is set and the float valve is up.
  • Cook on high pressure for 35 minutes. Perform a slow release after cooking.
  • Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.

Notes

Serve this moist and tender Somerset Cider & Apple Cake warm or at room temperature for best flavor.
