Directions
To make the cake: preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
Lightly grease and flour a 8 inch ring tin.
Place the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla in a bowl and beat on medium speed for 5 minutes.
Stir in the grated zucchini and walnuts.
Fold in the remaining dry ingredients and spoon the mixture into the pre-pared tin.
To make the topping and cook the cake: toss the apple in the lemon juice and arrange on top of the cake mixture.
Combine the walnuts with the sugar and allspice, spread over the apple and bake in a preheated 350℉ (180℃) F oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning out.
Serve warm or cold, with or without butter.
Cooking must be done with great care and love, sometimes it demands time.
