Baked Apple Lemon Sponge


I made this pudding yesterday, and you will laugh when you hear what I did. Let's just say it wasn't so much baked apple lemon sponge, but baked pear lemon sponge!!
On Wednesday I had taken a bag of, what I thought were frozen cooking apples out of the freezer to defrost, with the aim of making this.
I must have been in rather a rush, as I did not notice that they were pears, even when they had defrosted.
The resulting pudding was rather wetter than it should have been, I guess due to the high water content of the pears.
It was only as we were eating, (and not really enjoying), that we realised the mistake that I had made. Needless to say, pears and lemon are not as good a combination as apples and lemon. I really don't feel able to rate this pudding. I think it has the potential to be nice, but I do not intend to make it again this year to find out!!!
