Instructions
Preheat oven to 190°C. Process flour, baking powder, cinnamon, butter and 1 tsp salt in a food processor until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Transfer to a bowl and stir in caster sugar, egg and apples until mixture comes together. Stir in enough of the milk until mixture forms a soft dough.
Place dough in a greased 19 cm round cake pan and scatter with sugar. Bake for 40 minutes or until golden. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
