Project 205: Apple cake/tart

My mom used to make this when we were kids.....she said it was a tart.  I recently got a similar recipe, but now the recipe said cake or tart.....so you can decide for yourself whether its a cake or a tart!.....Cake or tart.....the boys polished it and said we can make this again....and my husband was seriously upset when he came home after visiting somebody and he did not even get a crumb!

200ml butter
250 ml sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla essens
3 eggs
2 cups of flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
200 ml milk

Mix everything together and pour half in your cake baking tin.

Arrange a 410g tin of pie apples on top and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Pour the rest of your dough on top and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar(30 ml sugar with 1/2 tsp cinnamon.

Bake for 45 minutes at 180*C.(Check after 35 minutes)

On the stove top or microwave prepare a syrup of 1/2 cup of water. 90 ml sugar, 50 ml butter and 30 ml lemon juice.

Prick your cake/tart with a fork when you remove it from the oven and pour the syrup all over it.  Serve hot or cold with cream/ice cream.
