Method

Shortcake Base & Topping
Place Chelsea Raw Sugar, butter and vanilla essence in a food processor and process until creamy. Add egg and pulse to combine before adding flour. Pulse until a ball is formed.

Take one third of the dough and wrap in plastic wrap. Wrap the remaining dough up separately. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 200ºC bake. Line a slice tin (approximately 20cm x 26cm) with baking paper.

Filling
Place apples, Chelsea Raw Sugar, cornflour, lemon juice and cinnamon in a medium bowl and stir to combine.

Take the larger portion of dough and press evenly into the base of the prepared tin. Cover with the apple filling. Crumble the remaining dough over the apples.

Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 180ºC bake and continue to bake for a further 25-30 minutes, until golden brown and cooked.

Leave to cool in tin before slicing and serving.
