Apple pie

Apple pie

When I make apple pie, I usually make two of them. I cook the first one immediately. The second one I put it in the freezer. I keep it there and when I need it I take from the freezer and put it in the oven.

The recipe that I give below makes two round pies 24 cm in diameter each.

This cake is very fluffy and therefore breaks easily.

To take it out of the pan without breaking the pan should be nonstick.

It is best to use nonstick pans with ceramic coating.

Apple filling

6 large apples

80 g sugar

15 g ground cinnamon

Directions

Peel the apples and cut then into slices. Apple slices should resemble cloves of a medium-sized orange.

Sprinkle apple slices with sugar and cinnamon.

Greased and floured two nonstick pans

In the center of each pan put a round piece of apple. Around this piece, place as rays the other pieces of apple and form a margarita,

Put the pan on the bottom rack of the oven and bake the apples at 175 degrees Celsius for 15 minutes.

Take the pan from the oven and leave it to cool..

Cake

Ingredients

250 grams margarine at room temperature

400 grams whipping cream with 30% fat

3 eggs

 Vanilla

2 tsp baking powder

160 g sugar

450 g self- rising flour

80 g olive oil

Directions

Put in the bowl of the mixer the margarine and 40 g olive oil.

Beat the margarine with the oil 2-3 minutes over low speed.

Add the sugar and the remaining olive oil and hit again.

Increase the speed and add the eggs one by one.

Add vanilla and the whipping cream little by little, hit for 3 minutes.

Drop into the bowl the baking powder and hit it a minute with the remaining ingredients.

Take away the mixer bowl from the base and release it.

Sift the flour into the batter and mix slowly with the wire.

Place the cake batter over the baked apples and spread evenly everywhere.

Put the pan back in the oven and bake at 150 degrees Celsius for 75 minutes.

Peg a knife into the cake and then pull it out.

Notice the knife. If it is clean, the cake is cooked. If not, bake a little longer.

Take the cake from the oven and leave it to cool.

With a spatula loosen the cake from the sides of the pan.

Turn the cake upside down in a serving platter.

In this way the baked pieces of apple come up and the cake goes down. 

The second pie, either bake it immediately or leave in the fridge wrapped in foil.

When you want to bake it, remove it from the freezer and put straight into the oven to cook.
