A quick and simple Italian apple cake from ” Twelve: A Tuscan Cookbook” by Tessa Kiros. Its best made on the day you want to eat it as it does not keep well. If you like you can add a couple of Tablespoons of Vin Santo or another liquer to the batter. Serve on its own or with fresh whipped cream.

This is from ” Tender Volume 2″ by Nigel Slater and makes a pudding with a lighter and less rich topping than a crumble. SErve with double cream.
