This video is about Learn how to make and bale this ITALIAN APPLE CAKE and make sure you fill it with good apples! The recipe for this ITALIAN APPLE CAKE is traditional, just like my very Italian grandma used to make it.
Ingredients for a 23cm round baking pan
700 grams of apples
3 eggs
50 grams of butter
300 grams of flour
200 grams of sugar
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 glass of milk
Grated rind and juice of one lemon
Peel the apples, cut them in thin slices and sprinkle with the lemon juice. Leave them aside while making the batter.
Beat the egg whites until stiff and in a different bowl whisk the egg yolks with the sugar. Combine the two mixtures and mix thoroughly.
Add the flour, the lemon zest and the butter cut into cubes then pour the milk and the baking powder into the mixture and beat to get a homogeneous and smooth batter.
Stir in the apples and leave a few slices aside to decorate the pie. Butter the baking pan and sprinkle it with some sugar then cover the surface with a few slices of apple
Pour in the mixture, sprinkle with more sugar and bake for 30 minutes at 200° C (390°F).
When it is ready (insert a thin skewer, a toothpick or a cake tester into the center of the cake and the cake is ready when the skewer comes out clean with no streaks of batter), remove from the oven, overturn it on wire rack and let it cool.
