Line the bottom of the tin with baking paper and dust the sides with extra flour. 3. In a large bowl, whisk the oil, eggs, dark muscovado sugar and vanilla extract until blended. 4. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, bi-carb soda, salt, allspice and cardamom. 5. Stir in the grated parsnip and apple to coat it with the flour. Add this to the wet mixture and stir until evenly mixed. 6. Pour the cake mixture into the prepared cake tin. 7. Place into the oven on shelf position 2 and bake for 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. Release the bursts of steam every 10 minutes. 8. Cool the cake for 30 minutes in the tin, then turn out onto a cooling rack to cool completely. Frosting 1. In a freestanding mixer with paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese, mascarpone, icing sugar and saffron water on medium speed until smooth. 2. Add the cream and beat until thick, careful not to over mix, as it may separate. To serve 1. Preheat the oven on Fan Plus at 160°C. 2. Place walnuts onto a universal tray and toast for 10 minutes. 3. Spread frosting over the cooled cake. Sprinkle with toasted walnuts and ground saffron. HINTS AND TIPS • Dark brown sugar can be substituted for muscovado sugar. • We used pink lady apples.
