There were some disgruntled family members when they realised that this was not being made for them, so I made it again tonight. It's that easy!
This is one of those recipes that is passed on from person to person because it is just so reliable and delicious. It can be served in larger pieces, with cream, as a dessert. It is a great lunchbox snack. I was given it by a friend at playgroup and have used it many times. Now I'm passing it along to you!
Ingredients
2 cups SR flour
1 cup sugar
125 g butter, melted
1 egg, lightly beaten *
3 apples, peeled and sliced **
Cinnamon
Extra sugar
* If you are really short on preparation time, add an extra egg - the additional liquid makes combining all the ingredients a lot easier. You'll need to add an extra 5 minutes cooking time though.
** I always find 3 apples too many, but then we usually have large-ish apples.
Method
Combine flour, sugar, butter and egg.
Press into a slice tin - I line mine with baking paper.
Layer apples on top and sprinkle with cinnamon and extra sugar. I layer my apples in rows to make it easier to cut into portions.
Bake in moderate oven for 25 - 30 minutes.

This slice comes out of the oven really soft - leave in the tin to cool for about 10 minutes. Use the baking paper to carefully lift it out of the tin so that it can be cut into portions.
Enjoy!

I did do some googling to see if this recipe is already out there. It probably is! I did find a couple that were similar, but none that I thought were as easy as this is.

Purple mixing bowl was from a long-ago Tupperware party. I cannot explain how awesome this bowl is. It just is!
