Steps:
- Heat the oatmeal, ground ginger and half the sugar in a non-stick frying pan until the sugar starts to caramelise and the oatmeal toasts, stirring often. Tip onto non-stick baking paper to cool, then break into crumbly nuggets. Make up to 2 days ahead and keep in an airtight container.
- Put the apples in a large saucepan, then add the chopped ginger, 50ml water and remaining caster sugar. Bring to a simmer, then gently cook for about 7 mins, adding the rhubarb halfway through, until both are softened, but not mushy. Add more sugar to taste, if you like, then leave to cool. Make up to 1 day ahead and keep in the fridge.
- Lightly whip the cream and fold half of it into the custard. Line the base of a large serving bowl with cake, sprinkle over the wine, then spoon over the fruit, draining off any excess juice. Add a layer of the oatmeal, cover with the custard, then finish with the rest of the cream, slivered ginger and oatmeal. Best assembled shortly before serving. Each element can be made the day before, then layered up when ready to eat.

Tips:
- Choose a good quality gingerbread cake. A homemade cake is always best, but a store-bought cake will also work.
- Make sure the apples are peeled and cored. You can use any type of apple, but Granny Smith apples are a good choice because they hold their shape well.
- Don't overcook the apples. They should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
- Use a good quality custard. A homemade custard is always best, but a store-bought custard will also work.
- Make sure the trifle is chilled before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the trifle to set.
Conclusion:
This apple and gingerbread trifle is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover gingerbread cake, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
