Ingredients
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour.
1 teaspoon baking powder.
3/4 teaspoon mixed spice.
2/3 cup brown sugar.
2 egg whites.
2/3 cup smooth apple sauce.
30 grams reduced-fat dairy spread, melted.
1/4 cup low fat yoghurt.
1 granny smith apple, grated coarsely.
2 tablespoons golden syrup.
1 cup evaporated milk.
1 teaspoon cornflour.
Method
Preheat oven to 200 C.
Grease a 6 hole 3/4 cup capacity Texas muffin pan.
Into a large bowl, sift flour, baking powder and mixed spice, and then add 1/3 cup sugar.
Mix well.
Place egg whites, apple sauce, melted spread, yoghurt and apple into a bowl, and stir to combine.
Add apple mixture to flour mix and stir with a metal spoon until just combined.
Spoon into muffin holes evenly, and bake for 20 to 22 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Allow to stand in pan for 5 to 10 minutes, before turning out to a wire rack.
Add golden syrup, milk and remaining 1/3 cup sugar to a saucepan, and place over medium heat.
Cook stirring for 3 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved.
Cook for a further 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
To a small jug, add cornflour and 2 teaspoons cold water. Stir to combine.
Add cornflour paste to sauce and return to a low heat.
Cook stirring until sauce boils and thickens slightly.
Serving
Serve cakes warm, drizzled with warm sauce.
