Method

  1. Beat 2 eggs with sugar and 1 teaspoon lemon rind until pale and thick. Sift in flour, baking powder and cinnamon; fold in gently, alternately with the milk. Pour the mixture into a lined 25x18cm slice tin.
  2. Combine cream cheese, 100g yoghurt and remaining egg until smooth. Using a knife carefully swirl the cream cheese mixture through the cake mixture.
  3. Stud the apples into the slice and bake at 180°C for 40-45 minutes, until golden and set. Allow to cool 5 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. For serving, combine remaining yoghurt and lemon rind. Cut slice into 12 rectangles and dollop with lemon honey yoghurt.
