I decided to make the tea cakes in a 12 mini loaf tin that I recently purchased. However, you can make it in a round or square cake tin.
These mini Apple Tea Cakes are simply delicious and perfect for everyday. They are not overly sweet, making it ideal to have with a cup of tea or coffee. I added some apples on top but you can make it without it and just sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on top.
