November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

 BismEm  and  salamem


This is a real food lovers' delight!  Once you go through it, you'll find that it's simple to prepare and not as rich as most other desserts.


The ingredients and the dessert ...
before and after.  For the benefit of your health,
remember to replace butter with corn or canola oil.



Ingredients
5 oz oil (substitute for butter)
2 large eggs
8 oz fine sugar
1 tsp almond essence (optional)
8 oz self-raising flour
1 and a half level tsp baking powder
1 lb cooking apples, before peeling
a little icing sugar


Method
Heat the oven to 375 degree F or 190 degree C.  Grease a 10" (25 cm) shallow cake tin.  If you're using a smaller cake tin, make sure it's deep. 

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat until just doggy and pour it into a large bowl.  Add egs, sugar and almond esence.  Beat well until mixed.  Then fold the flour and baking powder into it.

Spread just under two-thirds of the mixture in the greased cake tin. 

Now peel, core and slice the apples, and arrange roughly on top of th mixture.  Spread the remaining mixture over the apples.  If is difficult to get this last bit of mixture smooth, but don't worry.  It's supposed to look rough from the top and has a nice look after it's cooked. 

Bake for approximately 45 minutes until apple is tender when prodded with a skewer. 

Loosen the sides of th cake with a table knife and carefully turn the cake out onto a flat plate.  Then turn the rough side on top. 

Cool for 20 to 30 minutes.  Dust the top with icing sugar.  Can be served hot or cold.

For rich-food lovers who aren't interested in counting the calories they consume, can be taken with whipped or thick cream.  However, I would advise not to  Smiley

Leftover can be stored in the fridge, covered for upto 4 days.

Variation:
A low calorie variation that I ofen use to enhance the 'charm' and taste of this desset is as follows.

Make a thick custard, using custard powder, milk and sugar by following the label instructions on the custard powder packet.  Cool the custard.  Drain completely a small can of pineapples cut into bits.  After the cake and custard are cool, sprinkle half of the drained pineapples roughly over the cake.  If a few pieces fall along the side of the plate, that's okay.  Then pour the custard over the cake and pineapple bits.  Let it drip along the sides and it needn't cover all of the cake.  Sprinkle rest of the pineapple bits over the custard. 

Makes a gorgeous looking and tasting dessert.  I call it the apple-pineapple pudding.

Hey sis  hiyaaa   yummy stuff!!  teethsmile

That variation seems like real aristocratic dessert served at a VIP banquet Grin yet so easy to follow and prepare.

btw, how about making the cake batter with yellow cake mix.  Would that work?

I read these mouth-watering recipes and then can hardly wait to try them out  Cheesy

Salaams and thanks for your appreciation ruhi.  Yeah, I suggest do try it out.  You and your house folks are gonna love it.  It's really yummy.

Yeah, it'll work.  But accordingly remember to follow-up with the required alterations.  For example Betty Crocker cake mix and most others are meant to be baked half & half in two separate 7" shallow cake tins.  However for this one, you'll need a single cake tin.  So, to accommodate the entire batter in one cake tin, make sure you use a larger or deeper cake tin.  I wouldn't advise you to bake this apple cake in a regular 7" or 8" shallow cake tin by dividing the cake batter, because in a shallow cake tin the baking time for the sponge is about 25 mins or less.  But the apple slices would require a minimal of 40 minutes to get tender.
