Preparation procedure

  • Batter Beat the sugar with the eggs until pale and frothy. Add the oil and milk, mix. Fold in the all-purpose flour with the baking powder and prepare a thinner batter (consistency similar to pancake batter).
  • Pre-baking the base Pour half the batter onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper (approx. 30 × 20 cm) and bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C for 10 minutes.
  • Filling Meanwhile grate the apples, squeeze out the excess juice, mix with the sugar and cinnamon.
  • Finishing and final baking Remove the pre-baked base, spread the layer of apples evenly and pour over the remaining batter. Return to the oven and bake at 180 °C for another 30–35 minutes until golden.
  • Serving Let cool completely, dust with powdered sugar, and cut into slices.

Total preparation time: approx. 60 minutes (15 min prep + 45 min baking)

Tip

You can substitute some of the apples with pears or add a handful of chopped nuts or raisins.
