• In large bowl, beat butter and granulated sugar with electric mixer on high speed 1 minute. Add eggs and almond extract; beat on medium speed about 10 seconds. Add Bisquick mix; beat on medium speed about 30 seconds or until combined.
• Spread batter in bottom of pan. Press apple pieces, cut sides down, into batter. Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes or until apples are tender and cake is golden brown.
• Cool 30 minutes at room temperature. Remove side of pan. Sift or sprinkle powdered sugar over top of cake; sprinkle with almonds. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C.)
• In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Beat egg yolk in measuring cup and add enough milk to make 2/3 cup total liquid. Stir into flour mixture until all flour is damp. Divide the dough in half. On floured surface, roll half the dough into a rectangle and fit into a 9x13 inch pan.
• In large bowl, combine apples, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Put apple mixture in pan. Roll out remaining dough and place over apples. Seal edges and cut slits in top dough. Beat egg white till frothy and brush on crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 10-inch round cake pan.
• Cream together the butter, sugar, eggs, flour, almonds, milk, vanilla, boiling water and baking powder in a food processor, running it for 10 seconds. Run a spatula round the bowl and process for 5 seconds more. Pour into the prepared pan.
• Scatter the prunes evenly on the batter. Spoon over walnut and sugar mixture. Arrange the apple slices on top of the walnuts. Bake for 45 minutes.
• Sprinkle the surface with sugar and cinnamon. Dot with butter and bake for 20 to 25 minutes more, or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in the tin.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease a 9" square glass baking dish well.
• Mix together dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt, sugar).
• Stir in slightly melted butter.
• Add beaten egg,apples,nuts, and vanilla and stir to combine.
• Bake 30 minutes in prepared pan or until toothpick tests done.
• Serve warm with a bit of shredded Cheddar cheese sprinkled over the top and a dollop of whipped cream.
• I know the cheese part sounds strange, but it is the secret ingredient!

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs, slowly adding sugar until the mix becomes a light and airy.
• Melt the butter slowly without burning it (for example in the microwave) and let it cool down, and add it to the mixture, along with the grated lemon peel.
• Mix the flour, vanilla essence and baking powder and add it to the mixture.
• Line a large baking tin (lasagna dish) with greaseproof paper: cut the paper to 2" (5cm) larger on each side than the base of the tin, cut into each corner and press down into the tin.
• Pour the mixture into the tin.
• Peel and core the apples, cut into wedges (about 4mm thick at outside) and push them down vertically into the cake mix, so that the curved outsides face upwards towards you, and the sharp insides point downwards into the cake, like teeth. The slices should be completely buried in the cake mix, or they will burn.
• Sprinkle a little sugar on top of the apple slices.
• Bake at 175'C for 45 minutes. Allow to cool partly in the tin before removing to cool down on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Cook apples and water in covered saucepan on medium heat 10 to 15 min. or until apples are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
• Mash apples to desired consistency. Add vanilla and 3 Tbsp. sugar; mix well. Cool.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add bread crumbs, cinnamon and remaining sugar; mix well. Cook 5 to 8 min. or until crumbs are golden brown, stirring constantly. Spread onto baking sheet; cool completely, stirring occasionally.
• Spoon apple mixture and bread crumb mixture alternately into 12 dessert cups; top with COOL WHIP and jam.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5, and lightly oil a 20cm springform tin and line the base with a circle of baking parchment.
• In a stand mixer, or using a hand blender, whizz together the oil and maple syrup for 30 secs. Add the eggs and whizz for another 1 min before adding the apple sauce and blending for a further 30 secs. Tip in the ground almonds, baking powder, 1 tsp salt and cinnamon, blend for 30 secs and your batter is done. Pour it into the tin, and bake for around 30-40 mins or until the top is a deep golden brown, the cake is coming away from the sides a little, and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
• While it's cooking, make the topping. In a small frying pan, cook the apple gently with the rest of the topping ingredients and ½ tsp salt until the apple is soft and gently caramelised. When the cake is ready, scatter the bronzed apple chunks on top of the cake. You could also make it with chunks of caramelised peach or plum on top, or some cherry compote, or any berries which you have softened in a pan with a little water and maple syrup. Eat warm, as a pudding, with a spoonful of Greek yogurt, or cold with a cup of tea or coffee.
