Recipe's preparation

    Preparation
  1. 1 :  peel and thinly slice apples, place in dish filled with water (to retain colour and not turn brown)


    2 :  grease a deep sided 18cm flan tin


    3 :  chop butter and place in TM bowl - melt 60degrees, 90 secs speed 2


    4 :  add sugar - Gentle stir setting 30 secs


    5 :  add flour - Gentle stir setting 30 secs


    6 :  add egg - 10 secs, speed 3


    7 :  spread about two thirds of pastry onto base and sides of flan tin - best done by taking small amounts and pressing with fingers or back of spoon. Pastry will be quite moist almost biscuit like in appearance.


    8 :  drain apples well, and place into flan tin


    9 :  sprinkle with cinnamon


    10 : take small portions of remaining pastry mixture, flatten between fingers, and place on top of apples in random formation.


    11 : sprinkle lightly with sugar


    12 : bake 175 degrees C, for 45 mins

Tip

** cake tin variations, any spring form pan, round cake tin 18cm, square pan 18cm

** if using solid base pan, a couple of strips of baking paper criss-crossed over the bottom will make it easier to remove

** when cooked, the apples are quite firm (as this is a traditional German apple cake), however you can lightly steam the apple if you require a softer centre.

** as can be seen in the photo! the cake stands quite high (because the apples are not cooked before hand), and the topping all cooks together forming the crust.

** variations - you can add 30g sultanas & 30g almond flakes to apple filling.

    Lovely!! I reduced the sugar to 50g as my apples were very sweet. It's easy and delicious so I will definitely be making this again.

    Gorgeous cake! I used a round tin and it worked perfectly. I cooked mine at 155 degrees fan forced. I also  cut and added the sliced apples once the pastry was in the dish. Thanks so much for sharing. tmrc_emoticons.)

  • So , so easy and absolutely

    Submitted by Maida on 6. June 2015 - 19:55.

    So , so easy and absolutely delicious. I'm so glad I finally tried this as it's been on my list for ages. I didn't soak the apples and just sliced them after I had put the pastry on the base. Cutting down the sugar to 75 g was good as I was using golden delicious apples ( from our tree) and they are sweeter and hold their shape. I didn't have much pastry left so really just crumbled it on top and this made it even easier. . I will be making this very often as for very little effort the result is amazing. Thank you Roselie.  Love

    Yum yum yum!! 

    Thank you - this is a great recipe with cheap, pantry staples that I will make again and again. 

    The pastry is nice and light considering the small amount of butter. I used a 20cm springform tin and it was just enough to cover the base and provide a nice topping.
