This recipe is ideal for cooking enthusiasts who want to bring a touch of warmth to the kitchen, using simple and accessible ingredients. Here’s how to achieve a perfect result, step by step! Ingredients you need: - 20 tablespoons of flour - 2 eggs - 200 g sugar - 200 g butter (or margarine) - 100 ml milk - 20 g fresh yeast - 1.5 kg apples (preferably tart apples, such as Granny Smith or Golden) - A pinch of salt Step 1: Activating the yeast Start by mixing the fresh yeast with 100 ml of warm milk and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Let the mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes until it becomes frothy. This step is crucial to activate the yeast, ensuring your cake will be fluffy and well-risen. Step 2: Preparing the apples Meanwhile, peel the apples and grate them. Then, in a pan, add a little butter and sauté the apples over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until they become slightly soft. If you want to add a touch of flavor, you can sprinkle a little cinnamon or a squeeze of lemon juice over the sautéed apples. Step 3: Preparing the dough In a large bowl, combine the flour with the sugar and a pinch of salt. Make a well in the center and add the eggs, the activated yeast mixture, and the melted butter (let it cool slightly before adding). Knead the dough well until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, you can gradually add a little extra flour. Step 4: Combining the ingredients Once the dough is ready, carefully incorporate the sautéed apples. Make sure they are evenly distributed in the dough so that each slice of cake is full of flavor. Step 5: Baking the cake Grease a baking tray with butter and dust it with flour to prevent sticking. Pour the dough into the tray and level the surface. Preheat the oven to 180°C and bake the cake for about 35-40 minutes, or until it is golden and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Step 6: Serving After the cake has cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar for an elegant look. Serve it warm or at room temperature, alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a delicious contrast. Useful tips: - You can add nuts or raisins to the dough for extra texture and richer flavor. - Substitute some of the flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier version. - If you prefer a sweeter taste, choose sweeter apples or add a little more sugar. This apple cake is not only easy to make, but it also brings a touch of nostalgia in every bite. Perfect for an afternoon with friends or as a family dessert, it is a dish that is sure to impress!
