FRIENDSHIP APPLE CAKE (4)

Ingredients .....1 cup of friendship bread starter, 2 cups of flour, 1 and 1/2 tsp of baking powder, 1/2 tsp of baking soda, 1 cup of oil, 1 cup of castor sugar, 1 dsp of ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp of salt, 3 lightly beaten eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 1 cup of milk, 100gm of instant puddding, 2 apples both peeled, (1 finely chopped , 1 cut into quarters and sliced.) Preheat your oven to 180 deg C. Line and lightly grease a 24cm x 24cm square pan ( or 2 smaller loaf / round pans). Place all the above ingredients bar the apples,into a large bowl and mix until smooth. I used my electric mixer. Once mixed add the finely chopped apples and stir through. Now pour the batter into the prepared pan/s. Finally top the batter with the sliced apple and sprinkle with a mixture of cinnamon and castor sugar. bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted comes out clean, if browning too quickly place a sheet of baking paper loosely on top. OMG this is good.
