Total time: 20 min
Yield: 8
Ingredients: 3 eggs; 150 g granulated sugar; 1 packet vanilla sugar; 100 ml vegetable oil; 150 ml whole milk; 220 g all-purpose flour; 1 packet baking powder (16 g); a pinch of salt; 2–3 medium apples (e.g. Jonagold, Gala); 1 tablespoon lemon juice; 1 tablespoon powdered sugar; optionally ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Preparation procedure

Preheating the oven: Turn the oven to 180 °C (top and bottom heat). Line the cake pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Preparing the batter: Beat the eggs with the granulated and vanilla sugar until light and frothy. Pour in the oil and milk, mix briefly. Add the sifted flour with the baking powder and a pinch of salt. Work into a smooth, medium-thick batter.
Preparing the apples: Peel the apples, remove the cores and cut into thin slices. Drizzle with lemon juice so they don't brown.
Assembling the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Arrange the apples on top in a fan pattern or to your liking. You can sprinkle with cinnamon.
Baking: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 45–50 minutes. You'll know it's done by its golden color and the skewer test – the skewer should come out dry.
Finishing: Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar. The cake can be served warm or cold.
