We start by preparing the apples, an essential ingredient in our delicious recipe. The apples are washed well under running water, then we peel them. Using a grater, we grate them, resulting in a fine paste that will add a pleasant aroma and texture to our dish. It is important to squeeze the apples well to eliminate excess juice, to avoid making the dough too wet.
In a pan, we put the grated apples to sauté, adding half a cup of sugar and cinnamon to taste. These ingredients will enhance the flavor of the apples, transforming them into a sweet and aromatic topping. We cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the apples become soft and syrupy, and the sugar completely melts, resulting in a homogeneous and delicious mixture.
Meanwhile, we take care of the dough. We take a baking dish that we grease well with butter or margarine, ensuring it is evenly coated to prevent sticking. In a large bowl, we combine the flour, semolina, and one cup of sugar, mixing the dry ingredients well to homogenize them. Then, we add one cup of apple juice, which will give the dough a fresh flavor and a slightly fruity taste. We mix well until we obtain a homogeneous composition.
Now, we are ready to assemble the dessert. We pour half of the prepared dough into the greased baking dish, leveling it evenly on the bottom. Over the dough, we add the sautéed apple mixture, distributing it evenly. Then, we pour the rest of the dough, ensuring we completely cover the apples. Finally, we add another cup and a half of apple juice, which will seep into the dough during baking, giving it a moist and fluffy texture.
We place the dish in the preheated oven at a medium temperature and let it bake for about 40 minutes. It is important to check from time to time if the dessert is ready by doing the toothpick test; it should come out clean when inserted into the dough. After baking, we let the cake cool slightly before cutting it into portions and serving it. This apple cake recipe will surely bring a touch of joy to your tables, being perfect for any occasion!
