1 egg
150 g plain flour
100 ml milk
50 g melted butter
50 g granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation procedure

Preheat the oven: Turn the oven to 180 °C. Prepare a small baking dish or cake tin and grease it with butter, then lightly dust with flour.
Prepare the apples: Peel the apples, remove the cores and slice them thinly. For a stronger flavor you can toss the apples with a little cinnamon and sugar.

Assembling the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared tin and evenly arrange the sliced apples on its surface. Press them lightly into the batter so they meld nicely while baking.
Baking: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until the surface is golden and a skewer inserted comes out dry.
Serving: After baking let the cake cool. Before serving you can dust it with powdered sugar or serve with a spoonful of sour cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
