This was a very easy recipe and simple with few ingredients, which i would definitely make again. My effort was more like apple bread pudding but that was because i had too many apples i needed to use so i put a little too many in which made it abit wet but that was entirely my fault! Also i added a large shake of cinnamon which i think added to the taste - impressed with this recipe!
