Method
0/4 doneStep 1: Heat the oven to 350°F (300°F fan). Grease an 18 cm round baking tin lightly and dust it with flour, tapping out the surplus.
Step 2: Mix the 4 ½ oz wheat flour, 3 ½ oz wheat biscuit cereal (Weetabix), 3 ½ oz sugar, 4 ½ oz butter, 4 ½ oz apples, 1 tsp vanilla essence, 7 oz sweetened condensed milk, 2 ½ oz cashew nuts, 1 cup hot water, 2 tsp ground cinnamon, 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda and 2 tsp baking powder to a dropping consistency.
Step 3: Pour into the tin and bake for 1 hour. It is done when well risen, springy when pressed with a fingertip and a toothpick comes out clean. Try not to open the oven door during baking.
60 minStep 4: Leave in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool. Serve with 1 ¾ cups ice cream.

Ma'amoul
Ma'amoul are delicate shortbread-like pastries made for Eid and Easter across the Middle East. A soft, rose-scented butter dough is wrapped around a filling of dates, walnuts, almonds and pistachios cooked with cinnamon, marked with a fork, baked pale and dusted with icing sugar. Makes 35; they keep well in a tin.
Banana and cashew slice
A soft, moist low-calorie slice made without flour, eggs or refined sugar: ripe bananas are blended with sunflower oil, vanilla and cardamom, then cashews, desiccated coconut, oats and grated apple. Baked and cut into wedges, it is naturally sweet and good with tea or in a lunch box.
Moist banana bread
The blacker the bananas, the better the loaf. This one is mixed in a single bowl with melted butter and a little brown sugar, so it's soft, deeply banana-y and keeps well for days.
