  • About

This is a very adaptable recipe, as you can use whatever fruit is in season, including plums, pears, apples or blackberries. Baking the cake upside down in the wood-fired oven keeps the fruit beautifully juicy, and gives the cake a lovely appearance.

Ingredients

  • 50 g /2 oz butter, softened
  • 50 g /2

Method

  1. Build up the fire in the oven until the temperature reaches 190°C/375°F, this will take about 40 minutes. Push the embers to the back of the oven, using a metal peel or coal hook. Keep the oven door closed to keep the heat inside.
