  1. 1

    For the short pastry, knead 300 g flour, baking powder, 100 g sugar, vanilla sugar, egg and 175 g cold butter in pieces first with the dough hooks of the mixer, then with your hands to a smooth dough.

    In the meantime peel the apples, quarter them, remove the core and cut them into small cubes. Bring to the boil with 100 ml water, lemon juice, 75 g sugar and cinnamon. Simmer covered for 6-8 minutes. Drain very well and let it cool down a bit.

  4. 4

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 175°C/circulating air: 150°C/gas: level 2). Grease a springform pan (approx. 26 cm Ø). Roll out approx. 3/4 of the dough on a little flour until round (approx. 34 cm Ø). Put the dough into the springform pan, pressing the rim about 4 cm high.

    Place the dough lid on top and carefully press down the rim. Continue baking at the same temperature on the lowest rack for 45-50 minutes. Let the cake cool down.
