Absolutely delectable- amazingly easy to make for such a gorgeous dessert – our contribution to Thanksgiving dinner and a total success
The Wensleydale and Cranberries and apple cake pie sounds delicious.
Do you have to use any specific apples? Does it have to be cooking or dessert apple?
I have baked this cake twice now, first time using Granny Smiths and the second with cox. Both are great. Thought it suited a more tart kinda apple but nothing that contained too much water. Hope this helps

I made this cake to use up Christmas Wensleydale over a year ago and have made it regularly since. So simple and very tasty.
