TORTA DI MELA
A divine Italian apple cake from La Baracca Trattoria at T'Gallant winery, Main Ridge, Australia. With *loads* of fruit and a sticky honey sauce to boot, it's a flavoursome, dense cake, but not excessively fatty. I've made it without the figs and it's still a winner. ;-) I've used brown sugar instead of muscovado sugar, which was fine as well. It's a long baking time, but worth the wait! Originally published in Gourmet Traveller (Australia) and modified slightly below.

Steps:
- Combine apples, lemon juice and rind in a bowl, toss to coat and set aside.
- Grease a 24 cm springform cake pan with 1 tbsp of butter and dust with ground walnuts.
- Whisk eggs, 1/2 cup muscovado sugar, caster sugar & vanilla essence until pale and creamy. Melt remaining butter and add to egg mixture with milk, flour and baking powder, then stir to combine.
- Pour 1/3 of the mixture into prepared cake pan, arrange 1/3 of apples on top, scatter with half the figs and pine nuts. Repeat, finishing with apples.
- Combine cinnamon and remaining muscovado and icing sugars, scatter over cake.
- Bake at 180 degrees C for 1 hour 20 minutes, cool in pan for 20 minutes.
- Towards the end of the cake's baking time, prepare the lemon syrup by heating the honey in a pan over medium heat and simmering for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir through lemon juice.
- Turn cake onto a platter, drizzle with warmed syrup.
- Serve with fresh cream if desired.
