Preheat the oven to 190ºC (170ºC fan-forced).
Bring a medium pan of water to the boil. Add the apple halves and poach for 5 minutes until they are just soft but still holding their shape.
In a separate pan, add the apples chunks with a splash of water and cook for 5 minutes or until soft.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add in the flour, ground almonds, eggs and spices and stir until combined.
Grease a 22cm cake tin.
Spoon half the cake batter into a cake tin, smoothing it out with the back of a spoon.
Add in the stewed apples.
Cover with remaining cake batter and smooth over the top.
Arrange the poached apple halves on top and sprinkle with flaked almonds.
Bake for 45 minutes – 1 hour, or until the cake is cooked in the centre and golden brown on top.
Serve with a dollop of Greek yoghurt.
