Cheese puffs
( SERVES 12 )

Now that new season apples are plentiful, this cake is also a good choice, especially if you have apples that quickly cook to a pulp, such as Sunrise or Ballarat. A cake takes longer to make and bake than scones, so it is just as well that this one is delicious to eat straight from the oven. I prefer this recipe, in which slices of raw apple are baked in the middle of a light, buttery cake, to the more traditional apple shortcake, which is made with hot stewed apple.
Ingredients
1 cup | Standard flour |
2 tsp | Baking powder |
¾ tsp | Salt |
1 pinch | Cayenne pepper |
2 pinches | Ground ginger |
125 g | Tasty cheese, grated |
1 | Egg |
½ cup | Milk |
1 Tbsp | Oil, mild, e.g canola |
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 200C.
- Sift the dry ingredients together and stir in the grated cheese. Break the egg into a small bowl, add the milk and oil and whisk with a fork.
- Add to the dry ingredients and mix with a fork just until mixed.
- Drop tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking tray lined with baking paper or baking cloth.
- Bake for about 8 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Makes 12 small puffs.

added 1189 days agoThis recipe is for cheese puffs but the description is for some kind of apple cake. I think you've got things all mixed up for sure.
