Ingredients

2 medium apples
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 egg
½ cup oil
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation procedure

Preparing the apples: Peel the apples, remove the cores and cut into small cubes. Set aside.
Preparing the batter: In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Add the egg, oil and milk. Stir until you get a smooth batter without lumps.
Incorporating the apples: Fold the chopped apples into the batter and gently work them in so they are evenly distributed.
Baking: Pour the batter into four ceramic mugs or smaller baking dishes. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for 20–25 minutes, until the cakes are golden and springy to the touch.
Serving: You can serve the cakes still warm, sprinkled with a little cinnamon, or topped with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
