Two recipes in two days, that's highly unusual from me, but here I am, today I'd like to share an apple pie recipe with you that I have just tried out. The recipe is not mine, I have found it on YouTube, as always.
I wanted something easy and not too creamy and sweet as I don't like those. After going through a lot of videos, this one seemed like a good one.
4 eggs,
pinch of salt,
160g sugar (I only used 150g),
160g flour,
1 tsp baking powder,
4 apples, (sour if possible)
vanilla sugar source
The method is as simple as possible. As the recipe says, beat the eggs with a mixer, till it's foamy. Slowly add sugar and beat till it's necessary (has to be white and the sugar melted).
What was a bit strange here was that she incorporated the flour by hand. I can understand why as going in with the mixer would crash the foam, mug it is also risky because you has t be careful not to leave lump in it.
To avoid any complication, I added the baking powder to the flour and mixed well. Then added the flour gradually and managed to get a mix without lumps.
I put the flour mix aside and started to peel the apples.
Next was to cut out the seeds and diced the apples.
Then I added the apples to the flour mix.
In the video the woman is using a rectangular pan but mine is too small, so I thought I would use my cake pan, lined with baling paper.
Then I went rogue and sprinkled the cake with with ground walnuts, which is not in the recipe, but apple with nuts is a good combination.
The recipe says bake 30 - 35 minutes at 180C but I needed more, so after 35 minutes I reduced the heat to 150C and baked 20 minutes more.
And voil谩! Here's the cake, which does not look good but if I use the "FOOD" mode, I get different photos.
After tasting it, I can assure you, that it's heavenly good. It is not too sweet and using only 150g sugar was a very good idea. I'm definitely going to keep the recipe and use it again when I want an apple pie as I like the outcome. It is easy to make, ready in no time and delicious as well. Can I ask for more? I don't think so.
Soooo, who wants some apple pie? G-dogula (
