I just found this recipe and unfortunately I don't have any apples but it looks delicious. Just thought I would post it as someone is bound to have the ingredients at hand...
Ingredients:
6 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 cups green apples, chopped,peeled
2 tablespoons thyme leaves, and small sprigs
whipped cream
2 green apples, wedges (optional)
Directions:
1. Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter and flour a 9-inch layer cake tin.
2. Cream together the butter and sugar, then add the eggs and beat until blended.
3. Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda and salt, and sift; set aside.
4. Beat the buttermilk into the egg mixture, then fold in the sifted dry ingredients.
5. Fold in the apple and thyme.
6. Scrape the batter into the prepared tin.
7. Bake for about 35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out dry.
8. Serve each wedge with whipped cream onthe side.
9. For an optional garnish touch, cut a green apple wedge into crosswise slices with a sharp knife (which minimises browning) and arrange a few slices next to the whipped cream.
