- 4 large apples peeled and thinly sliced (I like to use Granny Smith Apples)
- 1 lemon (zest + juice)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon or to taste
- 240 g all-purpose flour 8.5 oz
- 280 g granulated sugar 9.9 oz
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 125 g melted butter 4.4 oz
- 3 eggs lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon sugar for sprinkling
Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
Peel and thinly slice the apples, then toss them with cinnamon, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
4 large apples, 1 lemon (zest + juice), 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
240 g all-purpose flour, 280 g granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 pinch salt
Arrange the apples in the dish, then sprinkle the dry mixture evenly over the top.
Pour the lightly beaten eggs over the dry mixture, then drizzle the melted butter on top.
3 eggs, 125 g melted butter
Sprinkle with sugar.
1 tablespoon sugar
Bake for 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden and crunchy
Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes:
-
Dry spots: If the topping comes out with a few dry bits, brush lightly with melted butter and bake 1 extra minute if desired.
-
Apple choice: Tart apples like Granny Smith work best to balance sweetness, but Gala or Honeycrisp are fine if you prefer a sweeter dessert.
-
Serving & storage: Best served warm with vanilla ice cream. Keeps up to 4 days in the fridge.
