I made cooking legend Mary Berry's apple dessert cake which she's been making for years.
Berry says the recipe is easy and can be made using leftover apples from the fruit bowl.

To make the recipe, I gathered eight key ingredients.

I then added the eggs, melted butter, and almond extract.

The mixture initially looked a tad dry, so I went off-recipe and added a splash of milk.

After adding half of the mix to the baking tray, I added thickly-sliced apples.

Adding the remaining mixture over the apples was the most challenging part.
