Last month, after reading Keropokman's Granny Smith Cranberry Olive Oil Cake, I immediately went into the kitchen to make this. It's a very simple stir-and-mix cake. Usually I prefer cakes using chiffon method, but this stir-and-mix cake turns out surprisingly good. It is moist and soft, not too dense. The apples and cranberries are a perfect match!
I have reduced the recipe by 1/3 to fit my 6 inch round tin.
Apple Cranberry Olive Oil Cake
Ingredients (makes one 6 inch round tin)
1/3 cup sugar (I use 70g)
1/3 cup olive oil (I use 80ml)
2 small eggs
1 cup granny smith (about 1 large apple, peeled, cored and diced)
1 cup plain flour (I use 130g)
2/3 tsp baking powder (use slightly more than 1/2 tsp)
1/3 tsp baking soda (use slightly more than 1/4 tsp)
1/3 teaspoon of salt (use slightly more than 1/4 tsp)
50g dried cranberries (I soak in water for a few minutes to soften, then pat dry)
1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
Method
1. In a large mixing bowl, add in sugar, olive oil and eggs. Whisk the mixture with a hand whisk until sugar dissolves and well-mixed.
2. Add in apples. Mix well.
3. Add in sifted flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add in dried cranberries and cinnamon powder. Mix well with a spatula. Do not overmix.
4. Pour the mixture into a lined and greased 6 inch cake tin.
5. Bake at preheated oven at 175 deg C for 30 minutes or until done. Poke a skewer into the middle of the cake. If it comes out clean, it's done. If not, give it another 5 to 10 minutes.

The cake indeed look soft and fluffy.
Stir and mix, quick and easy, my cup of tea, going to try this. Thanks for sharing .
This cake looks great and it's a healthier choice I think. Never baked cake using olive oil, maybe I should give it a try :)
Wowow!! Stir, mix and bake!!! My favourite cos i could let my boy do the job and at the same time occupy him with some task :) And your sure look great with those yummy fillings.
you have given me a great idea to use my cranberries which sleep in my fridge for quite some times already...:)
i saw you were using plain flour, this is the normal flour not cake flour right?
My elder daughter love anything apple, so this will be a nice cake to let her snack during recess time. Thanks for sharing this...will bake it on Monday and may add oats, heehee. :)
鲸鱼蓝蓝蓝: 惨了! List 越来越长了! :)
Vivian: Thanks Vivian! Hope to see yours soon!

Min: At first I was worried about adding olive oil. Luckily it turned out good, olive oil flavour not too strong.
Ellena: Oh yes, stir and mix very good for kids baking. And can also encourage them to try more fruits. :)
Sherleen: I'm also trying to get rid of the cranberries, hehe! Yes, I just follow the original recipe which uses plain flour. You can also use cake flour.
Honey Bee Sweets: Really! I want to see yours on Monday. :)
做法真的很简单,而且成品是软的哦?我也想尝试看看了 ^_^
Hi SSB
I bake this last night, like it a lot, Already plan to bake another batch using wholemeal flour. This is a very healthy cake, thanks for sharing.
Looking at the photo, I feel like taking a bite. Looks so tempting. Can olive oil be replaced with canola oil?
爱丝特: 真的很松软。只要不要搅拌过度就可以了。刚看到Angel试过了也说不错!
Angel: You are fast! It's a very good idea to use wholemeal flour, healthier!
Yummy Bakes: Yes, you can replace with canola oil. Try it! :)
Hi! I baked using the full recipe and the taste is good. But the cake turns soggy abt 6 hrs later. Do u hv this problem? Did u keep the cake inside the fridge when u save it for the next day? Thanks!
Hi, I don't have this problem and mine keeps well for 2 days. Did you wait for it to cool down completely before you store it? I just keep it in airtight container at room temperature. You can keep it in the fridge if you want to keep it for more than 3 days.
Hi SSB, this recipe is great! Especially good when I need to quickly bring a cake to a potluck party. Thanks!
Thanks Ronni! Hope you had fun celebrating!
