It turns out that sourdough focaccia is my new favourite go-to bread to make!
Preheat oven to 175C.
Cream together 180g butter and 180g caster sugar until fluffy and white.
Add 3 eggs and mix in.
Add 100g unused sourdough starter...fresh is better but it can be completely flat and still be ok.
Stir in 180g self raising flour.
Put in a greased loaf tin. Sprinkle top with mixture of brown sugar, cinnamon and chopped up apples...to taste.( one cooking apple, tablespoon of sugar and teaspoon of cinnamon ) Press the sprinkle gently into the cake mixture...not too far...just enough to connect.
Bake for 35 to 45 minutes...top should be golden brown and a skewer comes out clean.

Ginger cake made with three types of ginger and a wonderful mix of dark treacle and golden syrup
This is a great staple gluten free loaf which I bake regularly every week. It's full of flavour and delicious eaten during the next 24 hours. After that it makes excellent toast for several days or can also be sliced and frozen for toasting at any time.
Crusty white dutch pot cooked sour dough - if you have ever despaired at making your sour dough rise despair no longer, i was once you, but this is my perfected technique!
A pleasantly soft and delicious cake, an experience you won't forget!
