Baker's Tips

• This Apple Bread will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
• To freeze, cut into slices and either wrap each slice separately in plastic wrap or separate the slices with freezer wrap. Seal in a plastic bag and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw at room temperature or toast straight from the freezer.
• It is also delicious served toasted. If you wish to toast it, make it without the sliced apple on top as it tends to burn during toasting.

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Brush a Wiltshire Large Loaf Pan (24cm x 13cm, top measurement) with a little extra oil to grease and line the base and two long sides with one piece of baking paper.

Step 2

Sift together the flours, baking powder, cinnamon and mixed spice into a large bowl, returning any husks from the flour to the bowl. Stir in the sugar and pecans.

Step 3

Core and then coarsely grate 3 of the apples. Squeeze out any excess liquid using your hands and then place in a medium bowl. Add the eggs, oil and vanilla and use a fork to whisk together until evenly combined. Add to the dry ingredients and use a large metal spoon or spatula to fold together until just combined.

Step 4

Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the surface with the back of a spoon. Quarter, core and thinly slice the remaining apple and arrange on the top of the loaf (see Baker's Tips). Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Stand in the pan for 5 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool.

Step 5

Meanwhile, to make the Whipped Honey Butter, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and honey until pale and creamy. Transfer to a serving dish, cover and set aside in a cool place.

Step 6

Cut the apple bread into 2cm-thick slices and serve spread with the Whipped Honey Butter.
