This was horrible I'm sorry to say! The mixture was watery so you couldn't put apple slices on top but I decided to just bake it and see how it turned out. It smelled a bit funny and tasted even worse. Very disappointing as I wanted to make a cake my coeliac niece could eat and had to just bin it! - 27 Mar 2016
