Ingredients
For the Pie:
Eggs – 3 pcs
Sugar – 75 grams (1/3 cup)
Salt – a pinch
Vanilla sugar – 8 grams (1 tablespoon)
Butter – 100 grams (7 tablespoons), melted
Flour – 150 grams (1 cup)
Baking powder – 10 grams (2 teaspoons)
Apples – 3 pcs (~300 grams), peeled and sliced
For the Topping:
Sugar – 3 tablespoons
Cinnamon – to taste
Directions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).
Prepare the Batter:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the 75 grams of sugar, salt, and vanilla sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Gradually add the melted butter and continue to mix until well combined.
Sift together the flour and baking powder, then fold into the egg mixture until just combined.
Prepare the Apples:
Peel, core, and slice the apples.
In a separate bowl, toss the apple slices with 3 tablespoons of sugar and cinnamon to taste.
Assemble the Pie:
Grease and flour a 20 cm (8-inch) springform or cake pan.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
Arrange the apple slices on top of the batter.
Pour the remaining batter over the apple slices, spreading it evenly to cover the apples.
Bake the Pie:
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes.
After 35 minutes, check the pie. If necessary, bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Cool and Serve:
Allow the pie to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing the sides of the springform pan.
Transfer the pie to a wire rack to cool completely.
