Albina was a lovely old lady that lived across the road from us. She used to make huge slabs of this cake and share it with the neighbours. You can serve it warm as a dessert with cream and/or ice cream or as a cake with a coffee ... yum

I wonder if the apple is going to sink to the bottom. Any clues to stop that from happening?

Love the cinnamon + apple combination. This reminds me of a similar Apple slice that my mum used to make for potlucks and gatherings when I was little.

This seems a very interesting cake. No apples at the moment thinking of using apples that have been bottled.

  It would also be a good cake to wrap in cellophane and give as a gift.
