Directions

  1. 1

    Mix flour, fat, sugar and egg with the dough hooks of the hand mixer to a smooth dough. Cover the dough and chill for about 30 minutes. In the meantime wash, peel and halve apples and cut out the core.

  2. 2

    Drizzle apple halves with lemon juice. Grease a springform pan (26 cm Ø). Divide the dough into three. Roll out 1/3 between 2 layers of foil. Line the bottom of the springform pan with it. Form the second third of the dough into a roll, place it on the edge of the tin and press it up at the edge.

  3. 3

    Mix the apricot jam and brush the dough base with it. Spread almonds and raisins on top. Place the apple halves on the dough with the cut surface facing down. Roll out the rest of the dough between 2 layers of foil and lay it over the apples.

  4. 4

    Press the dough at the edge of the springform pan with your fingers. Mix the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water and brush the dough with it. Bake in the preheated oven (electric: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for about 1 hour.

  5. 5

    Let it cool down and dust with icing sugar. Results in about 12 pieces.
