Ingredients
Serves 8
½ cup vegetable oil, plus more for the pan
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the pan
1 ½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp kosher salt
½ cup molasses
½ cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 apples—peeled, cored, and cut into 1.5cm pieces
Confectioners’ sugar, for serving
Preparation
Heat oven to 180° C. Oil a 23 cm round cake pan, line the bottom with a parchment circle, oil again.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, molasses, brown sugar, egg, ginger, and ½ cup boiling water. Add to the flour mixture and whisk until just combined (do not over mix). Fold in the apples.
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely. Before serving, dust with the confectioners’ sugar.
