Mary Berry makes a spicy loaf cake with apple and cinnamon for afternoon tea on the first episode of Mary Berry Cooks.

Mary says about her spicy loaf: “This is a lovely moist loaf which I love to serve sliced and buttered. It’s very quick and simple to make.”

For the ingredients, Mary used: 200g self-raising flour, 75g butter, 100g light muscovado sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 3 dessert apples, about 350g before peeling, peeled and cored, 3 eggs, beaten, 2 tablespoons warmed and sieved apricot jam.
