Simple apple slice

13th Oct 2011

Sarah has shared with us her perfect accompaniment to afternoon tea – a quick and easy apple slice that’s good for the hips.

Ingredients
1 350g packet of no-brand vanilla cake mix
1 cup desiccated coconut
125g butter, melted
400g can apple pieces
300g light sour cream
1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar

Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a 20cm square cake pan and line base with baking paper. Combine cake mix, coconut and butter in a medium bowl and press mixture evenly into the base of the pan. Cook for about 15 minutes or until the base is slightly brown. Spread apple evenly over the base, then spread the sour cream over the apple. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and cook for a further 20 minutes until the sour cream has set. Cool in the pan until base is firm.

To serve, cut the slice into small squares. Enjoy!

this slice is delicious eveybody I feed it to loves it, I add a dash of crushed cloves to the apple and a spoon of sugar, it is so easy to make and foolproof. I also made it with a tin of drained apricot halves and it was lovely. thanks

I think it would still have a fair few calories in this, I have been making it a long time, but although I love it I think in the Cake mix and cream there may a problem.

I agree Sylvia, I dont think it would be good for the hips, if you ate it a lot, as it has lots of butter in the base and sour cream, but it is delicious and everything in moderation is my motto, I save it for special occassions.
