Preparation Time

• Preparation: 15 minutes
• Baking: 35 minutes
• Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

• 3 apples, peeled and sliced
• 3 eggs
• 200g (1 cup) sugar
• 10g (2 teaspoons) vanilla sugar
• A pinch of salt
• 160g (1¼ cups) flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• Powdered sugar, for decoration

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F). Grease and flour a baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Batter:
   • In a large bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt until frothy.
   • Gradually add the sugar and vanilla sugar, beating until the mixture is pale and thick.
   • Sift the flour and baking powder together. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, mixing just until combined.
3. Add the Apples:
   • Gently fold the apple slices into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
4. Bake:
   • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top.
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
   • Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Decorate:
   • Once the cake is cool, sprinkle it with powdered sugar before serving.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
• Pair with a cup of tea or coffee for an afternoon treat.

Cooking Tips

• For added flavor, toss the apple slices in cinnamon before folding them into the batter.
• Make sure to sift the flour and baking powder to avoid lumps in the batter.
• Use room temperature eggs for a smoother batter.
• If your apples are very juicy, pat them dry with a paper towel before adding them to the batter to prevent the cake from becoming soggy.
