Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    While my unadventurous husband declared that this cake reminded him of a savoury cheese treat, my more adventurous colleagues at the office loved this cake and I agree. While it was a new flavor combination for me, it grew on me, do give it a try.

    I love a good seedcake and this was a nice variation. The spicing is subtle, as it relies entirely on caraway and apple. It was a little cake, a bit flat, and baked nicely in a one pound loaf pan.

    Good apple & caraway cake; very fragrant. Serves as an excellent coffeecake for brunch or afternoon tea.
