Ingredients
3 eggs
115g caster sugar
75g plain flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Filling / Topping
3 large eating apples
4 tablespoons clear honey
1 tablespoon water
75g sultanas
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
350g low fat soft cheese
4 tablespoons reduced fat fromage frais
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Method
1. Preheat oven to 190C - grease and line a 9 inch sandwich cake tin.
2. Place the eggs and caster sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric whisk until thick and mousse-like (when the whisk is lifted a trail should remain on the surface of the mixture for at least 15 seconds) - sift the flour and cinnamon over the egg mixture and fold in with a large spoon - pour into the prepared cake tin and bake for 25-30 minutes until the cake springs back when lightly pressed - turn onto a wire rack to cool.
3. Peel, core and slice the apples - put them in the saucepan with 2 tablespoons of the honey and water - cover and cook over a gentle heat for about 10 minutes - add the sultanas and cinnamon, stir well, replace lid and leave to cool.
4. Put the soft cheese in a bowl with the remaining honey, the fromage frais, and the lemon juice - beat until the mixture is smooth.
5. Halve the cake horizontally - put the bottom half on a board and drizzle over any liquid from the apples - spread with two thirds of the cheese mixture and top with the apple filling - fit the top of the cake in place and swirl the remain cheese mixture on the top.
