Ingredients
- Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp) – 3 large
- Eggs – 2 large
- Granulated Sugar – 1/2 cup
- All-purpose Flour – 1/2 cup
- Milk – 1/2 cup
- Butter (melted) – 1/4 cup
- Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon
- Pinch of salt – 1/4 teaspoon
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- Step 2: Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples using a mandoline or sharp knife (about 1/16 inch thick).
- Step 3: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Step 4: Gradually whisk in the flour, then the milk, until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
- Step 5: Add the sliced apples to the batter and gently toss to coat them completely, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Step 6: Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before removing from the pan and serving.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain moisture.
- For a warm slice, gently reheat individual portions in the microwave for 15-20 seconds.
- Dust the cake with powdered sugar and serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
- To prevent sticking, ensure your melted butter is cooled slightly before adding it to the egg mixture to avoid cooking the eggs.
