This is an authentic old fashioned Irish apple cake, the kind that would be made throughout the apple harvest season all over Ireland, where every farmhouse has its own prized version of the recipe. It’s delicious with or without the traditional custard sauce!
This is a classic apple cake filled with juicy apples and warmly spiced with cinnamon.
The warm weather in California always does a number on my fall spirit, so I’m taking matters into my own hands and doing some serious baking with apples. It never fails to get me in the mood, and nothing beats a kitchen filled with the warm scent of apples and cinnamon. This particular apple cake recipe is mildly spiced with an inner core of thinly sliced tart apples, topped with an crumbly oat streusel. Tradition dictates serving it with some thick cream, or a luscious custard sauce.
I used Granny Smith apples for this apple cake ~ they’re nice and tart and don’t get mushy in the oven.
The one negative I’ve found is that they aren’t quite as juicy as some other apple varieties. You can always experiment with other types, if you want, you can’t go too wrong here. (Pickyourown.org has a pretty comprehensive guide to apple varieties if you’ve got some choices!) You’ll need about 3 good sized apples for this recipe.
The crumble topping makes this cake especially great for breakfast, brunch, or afternoon tea
This is a not-too-sweet kind of cake in the European tradition. It’s pretty perfect with a cup of coffee or tea in the morning or mid afternoon, though still definitely special enough to serve as dessert, especially with the custard. The custard sauce keeps well in the fridge, and can be served either warm or cold. The cake, however, is especially fabulous and fragrant warm from the oven.
Craving more apples?
Try my Maple Frosted Apple Blondes, or my Spiced Apple Cake. If you’ve got lots of apples to use up (lucky you!) try making a batch or two of homemade Apple Butter or Apple Sauce.

Irish Apple Cake
Equipment
- 9 inch spring form pan
Ingredients
cake
- 1/2 cup or 113 grams unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1/2 cup or 100 grams sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 Tbsp or 45 ml milk or cream
- 1 1/4 cups or 150 grams all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp salt
- about 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and thinly sliced. Mine weighed a little over a pound after slicing.
- confectioner's sugar for dusting
streusel topping
- 3/4 cup or 96 grams flour
- 1/4 cup or 25 grams old fashioned rolled oats
- 6 Tbsp or 85 grams unsalted cold butter cut in small pieces
- 1/2 cup or 100 grams sugar
custard sauce
- 6 large egg yolks
- 6 Tbsp or 76 grams sugar
- 1 1/2 cups or 375 ml whole milk ~ you can also use half and half or cream
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Set the oven to 350F
- Make the custard sauce ahead of time. Bring the milk to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile whisk the yolks and sugar until well combined. Drizzle a little of the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking all the time. Drizzle a little more, then transfer that back into the pan of hot milk and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Do this slowly, over medium heat, and I like to use a silicone spoon or spatula to scrape the bottom and sides of the pan as it heats. The mixture will become velvety and thickend, but it will not be as thick as pudding. It will continue to thicken as it cools, so don't overcook or it can curdle. Stir in the vanilla.
- Pour the custard through a sieve (to catch any stray lumps) into a heat proof jar or bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface so it won't form a skin as it cools. Put in the refrigerator until completely chilled.
- To make the streusel topping, blend the bits of butter into the flour, sugar, and oats until the butter is incorporated and the mixture has a coarse crumbly texture. Put in the refrigerator.
- To make the cake, grease a 9 inch round spring form pan.
- Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the butter/sugar mixture, along with the milk or cream.
- Spoon the batter in to the pan, and smooth out evenly. Top with the sliced apples, and then the streusel topping.
- Bake for about 50 minutes to an hour, until the top is lightly browned and a toothpick comes out without wet batter clinging to it.
- Let cool a bit in the pan before removing. Dust with confectioner's sugar before serving.

June 28, 2020 at 10:27 amMade this last night and the family really enjoyed it! Not over sweet, very good! Thank you fro posting this recipe.
Sue
June 28, 2020 at 11:22 amIt’s a recipe you can go back to again and again, it’s such a season spanner.
Sandra
June 27, 2020 at 6:38 pmIs there an important reason to use unsalted butter? Does it make a big difference? I only have salted.
Sue
June 28, 2020 at 4:34 amYou can use the salted in baking, just remember to omit any other added salt in your recipes.
Judy
June 23, 2020 at 12:58 pmI’ve been reading books by Jean Grainger who is Irish and all her stories are set in Ireland. Seems like Irish cake with cream is THE cake for every special occasion so I’m thrilled to see your recipe.
Karen L
May 9, 2020 at 8:32 amJust put this cake in the oven and am impatiently waiting to see how it turns out. I have a feeling that I didn’t do such a great job on the streusel topping. The butter didn’t seem to be incorporated into the other ingredients enough but I went ahead and put in on the apples. Guess we will see what happens. If the cake is still as good as it sounds, I will have to make it again doing a better job on the streusel.
CJ
May 8, 2020 at 8:55 amHi! I want to try this recipe this weekend but I don’t have a spring form pan. Any suggestions or experience making with a different pan? Thanks!
Sue
May 8, 2020 at 8:58 amUse something with the same dimensions, like a 9 inch round cake pan, or even a 9 inch square baker. In those cases you’ll have to cut and serve the cake from the pan, because you won’t be able to turn it out.
CJ
May 8, 2020 at 9:14 amThank you! Will try!
patricia fitzgerald
May 7, 2020 at 8:48 amlooks and sounds divine! will definitely try it. Thanks!
Jen
April 29, 2020 at 11:11 amThis was so good. I substituted gluten free flour for regular flour, plus coconut milk for the crean. My whole family raved! Thanks
Sue
April 29, 2020 at 11:41 amThanks, Jen, glad you liked it!
Leissa
April 21, 2020 at 3:39 pmDelicious and moist. I added vanilla to cake and used brown sugar, instead of white in crumble. I will definitely make again!
Maggie B
April 11, 2020 at 7:19 pmDo I need to refrigerate this once cooled? Obviously, without the custard.
Sue
April 11, 2020 at 7:25 pmNo, you can leave it on the counter, covered with foil.
Alice
March 29, 2020 at 8:54 pmI was skeptical at first but made this and spoiled my family for good. My hubby loves this so much he wants it for birthday cake!
Sue
March 29, 2020 at 9:04 pmYay!! Just what I love to hear.
Sue
March 30, 2020 at 7:07 amThat’s the highest compliment 🙂
Florence Diehl
March 27, 2020 at 9:56 amEasy to make. And taste delicious beyond your imagination.
Dorothy Bernard
March 11, 2020 at 1:29 pmMade two cakes for our monthly UMW church meeting. Came out wonderful.
Sue
March 11, 2020 at 1:45 pmGreat, I’m so glad Dorothy!
Linda ONeill
March 8, 2020 at 3:34 pmExclusive of the custard sauce, does this apple cake freeze well?
Sue
March 8, 2020 at 3:49 pmIt should freeze fine Linda.
Lolly
March 7, 2020 at 10:14 amI would love it if you could post a picture where the texture of sliced cake is at the best angle to see it and without toppings. I think that gives you the best way to judge if you would enjoy it second to how it looks coming out of the oven in the pan. It does look very good from the angle shown in the pan.
Jaimie
March 5, 2020 at 8:08 amI probably should skip this recipe since I’ve just been diagnosed with T2D and am trying to control it with diet and exercise but this looks so good. Could you break down the nutrition info by each part? ( maybe if I skip the custard…). Thanks in advance!
Diane Cruciata
March 2, 2020 at 8:50 amCould you just eat the cake alone without the custard sauce
Sue
March 2, 2020 at 9:02 amYes, for sure!
Megan
February 26, 2020 at 8:34 amI have a family gathering where I stay the night for a week and would like to take this, they are 1.5 hours from me and I can’t make it in their kitchen. Is it okay to make the cake and crisp then freeze it until I need it?
Sue
June 21, 2020 at 4:45 amYes, that should be fine.
Lynne Gangl
February 26, 2020 at 5:43 amWhen discussing how little juice there is with only grannies, maybe switch out one of them for another type that has that extra quickness you might crave
Rachael
February 25, 2020 at 1:03 pmThis cake was delicious! Not too sweet with a wonderful texture. My family loved it with the custard on top, which is surprising because I I am usually the only one that likes custard. The next time I make it, I am going to chop the apples and fold them into the batter to get a good bit of apple in every bite.
Sue
February 25, 2020 at 1:34 pmGlad you loved this Rachel, I think chopping the apples would work great too 🙂
Patty
February 25, 2020 at 3:40 amThis recipe sounds delightful. Being gluten free, could almond flour, cassava flour or coconut flour substitute for the wheat flour?
I like the use if walnuts or pecans in place of oatmeal in the streusel topping.
Sue
February 25, 2020 at 7:28 amI always tend to recommend a good gf baking mix, or a baking mix combined with one of those flours, for best results in cakes and muffins etc.
Jamie
February 24, 2020 at 8:58 amThis sounds delish!!! Do you think I could leave out the oats in the topping?
Sue
February 24, 2020 at 9:00 amYes, just add a bit more flour, or you could add walnuts if that appeals to you.
nikii
February 20, 2020 at 7:57 amCan you make this the day before? Do you need to reheat the custard sauce?
Sue
February 20, 2020 at 9:46 amYes, and you use the sauce cold, so it’s perfect for the next day.
Bintu | Recipes From A Pantry
February 15, 2020 at 12:02 pmI’d love a slice of this with some custard sauce – it looks absolutely delicious and it’d be difficult to stop myself from eating it all!
Sue
February 22, 2020 at 8:07 amI love a slice the next day for breakfast 🙂
Jayne
February 15, 2020 at 11:31 amI have been looking for the perfect St Patty’s Day dessert and I just found it. This Irish Apple Cake looks amazing.
Sue
February 22, 2020 at 8:08 amI just made it again yesterday ~ so good!
Anita
February 15, 2020 at 11:14 amWe love a good apple cake in our house, and this one is definitely one of the tastiest we have tried. The streusel topping is lovely, and so is the custard sauce.
Jen
February 15, 2020 at 11:11 amNot only is this cake delicious but it makes the whole house smell amazing!
Sue
February 15, 2020 at 11:12 amI know, that’s such a nice bonus 🙂
Elaine
February 15, 2020 at 10:47 amTwo thumbs up for this recipe! I made it for a dinner party and it got rave reviews. Saving this one for St. Patrick’s Day, too.
Mkmc
January 28, 2020 at 7:24 pmDo you have pictures of the apple layer or can you describe how you did that layer? I am thinking about using a mandolin to slice the apples but don’t know if they should be in a single layer, 1/2″ tall or scattered and sparse. Since that apples are a layer and not in the batter, how would their juiciness be a factor? Do they cook into the cake?
Sue
January 28, 2020 at 7:29 pmI piled the apple slices into the cake in a haphazard way, no need to stack neatly. They don’t cook into the cake, they maintain their shape.
Brittney
November 15, 2019 at 8:56 amThis recipe was amazing! I didn’t have any apples on hand so I used bartlett pears that were still a little hard and they turned out perfect! I also used a tall 9″ cake pan and it worked great. The tall sides made it nice for holding the streusel topping once I cut it! I will definitely be making this again with pears for Thanksgiving. Thanks for the recipe!
Sue
November 15, 2019 at 9:17 amNow you’ve got me wanting to try pears!
Beckett
September 30, 2019 at 7:03 pmI love your recipe! I was curious if you ever made them as bite size cakes or mini muffins. In the off chance you have I am catering an event for 200 and would love to hear your advice.
Sue
September 30, 2019 at 7:14 pmI haven’t tried this as muffins, I would think it would be worth an experiment, though. For something as small as a bite sized muffin you’d want to get the apple into a tiny dice without turning it into mush ~ let me know if you attempt it!
Maria Elena
May 20, 2019 at 4:51 amHi Sue… I had traveled to Ireland and brought back good whisky!… I wanted to have some friends over for an Irish dinner so we could all try the whiskey together… I picked this cake for dessert and I was very pleased!!!… It is easy, delicious and not too sweet!!… My favorite kind 🙂
Sue
May 20, 2019 at 6:49 amI take that as high praise since you’ve just been to Ireland!
Falon
March 22, 2019 at 12:12 pmFor the blending of the oatmeal, can this be done by hand or is a blender needed.
Sue
March 22, 2019 at 1:29 pmYou can do it by hand, for sure, using forks or a pastry cutter.
Darlene Chambers
March 17, 2019 at 12:19 pmWould u think the 3 apples are too much??
Sue
September 4, 2019 at 3:19 pm3 worked just right for me.
Arlene K.
February 20, 2019 at 4:04 pmCould I use an 8 or 9″ cake pan instead of the spring form pan?
Sue
February 20, 2019 at 4:24 pmYes, absolutely, just watch your cooking time if you use a smaller diameter pan.
Leslie Kupfer
January 9, 2019 at 10:11 amHi – Can this cake be made with pears? Have several which are not soft yet, and thought they would go well in this recipe. Thanks1
Sue
January 9, 2019 at 11:00 amI would think that would be nice Leslie.
Debra
January 1, 2019 at 2:51 pmJust made this with my sister and nephew. We give it two thumbs up!
Sue
September 4, 2019 at 3:19 pmThanks Debra 🙂
Eileen
December 23, 2018 at 5:36 pmA novice to this, I was a bit alarmed at how dry the dough seemed, but the end result was lovely!
Sue
December 23, 2018 at 5:42 pmI’m so glad it worked out for you 🙂
Carol Weaver
October 15, 2018 at 12:51 pmSome stores in eastern PA (Wegman’s for example) carry Bird’s custard mix. We used that when living in the UK and it makes it so much easier to serve custard whenever we want it.
Sue
October 15, 2018 at 1:23 pmI remember that mix from when I lived in Britain, it’s so convenient. Wonder if you can get it on Amazon.
Madi
April 25, 2018 at 7:14 pmWhen I was making it, I was a bit concerned because the batter amount was quite small, and I barely had enough to create an even layer on my small round springform pan.
HOWEVER it turned out quite nice, and rose well (I use self-raising flour instead of baking powder and regular flour).
My only concern was that the sides and bottom were a slight edge of burnt even under the cooking time.
I’ll be trying this again in a couple of days to perfect it 🙂 It is a lovely cake. As I didn’t have the time to make custard, I’ve just warmed slices of the cake and served with ice cream <3
Sue
April 25, 2018 at 7:31 pmThanks Madi ~ and I would check your oven temp with a thermometer because it’s possible it runs a few degrees hot. This is a small cake, and I think that’s partly because it is authentically Irish, and the rest of the world seems to enjoy much more modest desserts than we Americans do 🙂
Georgia A Ipsen
March 25, 2018 at 5:35 amCan I use old fashioned oats instead of old fashioned rolled oats?
Sue
March 25, 2018 at 7:24 amYes, Georgia, that’s fine.
Angel
March 18, 2018 at 1:47 pmMade this for St. Patrick’s Day dessert. The cake turned out great. My husband doesn’t eat a lot of sweets so I know if he likes it we have a winner. I tried twice to make the custard sauce but after the second batch curdled I gave up and ate the cake with a scoop of French vanilla ice cream. I might try the sauce again some time but it’s fine without it. Thanks for this recipe it will be part of the rotation now.
Anne-Marie
March 4, 2020 at 12:58 pmHi, regarding the custard… I have always made my custard with cornflour and fewer eggs, I was dubious about this way anyways I did as per the recipe and saw the custard start to separate and curdle so I quickly took it off the heat and mixed some of the almost curdled custard with some regular flour and whisked it into the mix and back on low heat. Saved in the nick of time. Yum.
Sue
March 4, 2020 at 1:17 pmGood to know, Anne-Marie. Custard made like this is very sensitive to heat, for sure. Glad you could save it!
Maria Kanis
March 18, 2018 at 10:28 amHi there Sue, I’m Irish & hail from Dublin & for the last 18 years have lived with my English Husband in the Limousin region of France. Limoges, our capital city is renowned worldwide for it’s beautiful Pottery, our region is also famous for it’s Limousine Apples, hence the reason I’m always on the lookout for a nice apple cake, in fact, have a folder full of them & have worked my way through most of them. I’m looking forward to trying your recipe but was wondering if it’s at all possible to list in metric or imperial measurements for those of us this side of the Pond. I can convert, but it’s doesn’t always work out.
Being St Patrick’s weekend my Husband is shouting for Irish Apple Cake so I would love to try yours.
I’m not too sure if you will get this message or not but would love to hear from you.
Meantime, I hope you are having a good St Pat’s weekend. Slainte, Maria
Sue
March 18, 2018 at 7:06 pmHey Maria ~ I will try to get to that conversion this week, I’m traveling in Florida right now visiting my Dad and his wife, but I’m working remotely 😉 I wish I could find a reliable and easy converter, it’s such tricky business, as you note. I may have to get back to the kitchen and actually make this cake again to do an accurate job. Thanks for following along from such a distance ~ I would love to get to Limoges someday!
Lily
March 16, 2018 at 10:59 pmI am sad I did everything and looks like is not rising what did I do wrong? I used the right pan was I suppose to put the pan on cookies sheet cause that’s what I did maybe that’s it ?
Sue
March 17, 2018 at 6:20 amThis isn’t a tall fluffy cake, Lily, but rather dense, almost like a tart, so it’s possible you did everything right.
Teri
March 17, 2018 at 1:03 pmSue can you use a 8” cake pan instead of 9”?
Sue
March 17, 2018 at 2:31 pmSure!
Lily
March 17, 2018 at 2:43 pmThank you for letting me know that But it was Delicious ! So I know I did it right now thanks for sharing!
Amanda
January 21, 2018 at 3:45 pmIs the custard sauce supposed to be thick?
Sue
January 21, 2018 at 4:07 pmNot super thick, Amanda.
Brenda
December 12, 2017 at 3:39 pmIf I am serving this at a dinner party, can I make it the night before?
Sue
December 12, 2017 at 4:42 pmYes, that won’t be a problem, enjoy!
Katie HG
October 17, 2017 at 1:27 pmI’ve had a couple of apples knocking about in my fridge for a while and couldn’t decide what to make! I settled on this cake and boy am I glad! Delicious, soft, not too sweet and a wonderful crumble topping. Thank you!
Sue
October 17, 2017 at 2:00 pmThanks for letting us know, Katie!
joan
May 16, 2017 at 10:05 amI made this cake for Saturday nite dinner, what a success. I did not peel the apples and I used almond flour, it came out perfect. thank you for your wonderful recipes..
Julia Raudenbush
March 22, 2019 at 9:25 amI know this comment is 2 years old, but I am intrigued by your use of almond flour. Was that completely in place of the all purpose flour? I am gluten free and always looking for good ways to alter traditional recipes. Thanks!
Kelli Ann Wilson
March 17, 2017 at 4:43 pmI just made this for our family’s St. Patrick’s Day dinner – it was amazing! I didn’t actually make the custard (time constraints) but the cake was incredibly delicious all on its own. I used Kerrygold Butter made in Ireland for that extra special touch. On an unrelated note: I live in New Hampshire but I had never heard of Great Island until I found your blog. Now I’m intrigued!
Sue
March 17, 2017 at 5:02 pmOh I’m so glad you found me Kelli ~ I miss New Hampshire SO much, I’m determined to get back there to live someday 🙂 I’m really glad you enjoyed the apple cake!
Nancy Marzilli
April 7, 2017 at 3:04 amSue where is the recipe for this Irish apple cake? I would love to give this a try .
Steph
March 14, 2017 at 7:57 amHas anyone added raisins to this? I’m thinking of soaking them in Amaretto first.
Sue
March 14, 2017 at 8:07 amI don’t see why you couldn’t, Steph, and the Amaretto soaking sounds pretty amazing 🙂
Carrie
March 29, 2017 at 3:06 pmI soaked my raisins in brandy first and it was amazing I also used 2 Granny Smith’s and a Rome Apple because down here in Va the Mac apples are very mealy not like back home in Mass but came out very good
Sue
March 29, 2017 at 5:21 pmLove the idea of soaking the raisins, how could that be bad? And don’t get me started on Macs, I miss my New Hampshire Mcintosh apples SO badly!!
Cathie Kozachenko
February 2, 2017 at 7:50 amDo you serve the custard cold? Can it be served warm? How would you warm it? Love the cake. The custard I’d eat every day for the rest of my days 😉
Sue
February 2, 2017 at 8:03 amI think it’s usually served cold, but you could warm it briefly in the microwave and that would be amazing.
Victoria
February 5, 2017 at 6:54 amWhen I lived in the United Kingdom custard was served warm over desserts such as this. Super yummy! Can’t wait to make this for Saint Davids day ( I married a welsh man) haha
Jack
February 10, 2017 at 9:11 amAs a child I always had Birds Eye custard served warm over this kind of dessert, made, of course with full cream milk. Absolutely delicious.
Jovana
January 30, 2017 at 8:37 pmHi, I was just wondering how many layers of Apple should it be? One,two? I’m using a different type of apples and sure how much 3 Granny Smith apples would yuel. Thanks!
Sue
January 31, 2017 at 7:37 amI think if you use 3 good sized apples you’ll have a good amount, Jovana, I can’t recall how many layers, the slices just get piled in.
Jovana
February 7, 2017 at 5:59 amThank you!
Andrea
January 18, 2017 at 7:11 amDo too have to use the custard? Does it taste okay without it?
Sue
January 18, 2017 at 7:16 amNo you don’t need the custard, Andrea, although it does add a nice extra element to it.
Kayleigh | Whisks & Wooden Spoons
November 23, 2016 at 5:27 pmThis sounds amazing! Custard all the way – on anything/in everything.
Sue
November 23, 2016 at 5:36 pmHaha!! I have to agree 🙂
Andi
October 6, 2016 at 3:11 pmThe ingredients for the custard call for 6 tbsp of butter; yet, the directions don’t include the butter when making the custard.
Andi
October 6, 2016 at 3:12 pmoops that is sugar not butter my bad!!!
Eden Passante
March 15, 2016 at 2:21 pmThis looks amazing! Love apple cake so much!
Dee
March 11, 2016 at 5:15 pmJust a note that I almost forgot the cinnamon, bp, and salt because it isn’t mentioned in the instructions. Luckily, I double checked. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Sue
March 11, 2016 at 5:36 pmI reworked the recipe instructions to be more clear, thanks Dee!
michelle
February 28, 2016 at 10:52 pmHi. Is it absolutely necessary to use a springform pan? can we use a regular 9″ baking pan?
Sue
February 29, 2016 at 7:05 amNo I’m sure it’s not essential Michelle, but as I recall it’s a lot of batter, and comes pretty high up in the spring form pan, so just be sure your pan can accommodate it, and watch the baking time.
michelle
March 2, 2016 at 10:34 pmThank you. 🙂
mary kathryn
October 14, 2014 at 1:48 pmOne thought about apples that I got from an American Test Kitchen recipe (for apple pandowdy). They recommend using a mix of apples, some for flavor and some for texture. So you might want to choose 2 granny smiths, for flavor, and one other that would give more juice. Just an idea.
Sue
October 14, 2014 at 2:14 pmGreat info!
Laura+(Tutti+Dolci)
October 1, 2014 at 12:43 pmI adore that streusel topping, what a perfect apple cake for the fall!
Susan
September 28, 2014 at 7:15 amI am all over anything apple these days even though we’ve been having a warm and gorgeous Indian Summer here in the Midwest. The leaves are turning and the crickets are chirping at night and it just smell like fall.
What a gorgeous dessert and that custard sauce just pushes it to a whole new delicious level.
sippitysup
September 24, 2014 at 5:43 pmI like Rome for that very reason. They show up late in the season here, and that’s a drawback. GREG
Chris @ The Café Sucré Farine
September 24, 2014 at 12:03 pmWowsers! This is spectacular! I love that every country has it’s own version of apple cake. I’ve made French, German and Danish but Irish is new to me. The custard sauce is a fabulous and unique twist.
Luci {Luci's Morsels}
September 23, 2014 at 9:41 pmThis CA weather is killing my fall vibe too, but I know I’ll be thankful we live here in about two months – like I always am! This apple cake looks divine! I’ll need to find a cool corner to wear a sweater and eat some!
[email protected]
September 23, 2014 at 8:54 pmYou are absolutely right the smell of apples and cinnamon is something one never tires of. The summer is about to hit here I will have to get my skates on and get this baking before it gets too hot. I can just imagine this being cooked in a little Irish cottage, how good would this be to come home to.
