How to cook cake "apple dream" step by step with photos

Yes, it's a lot of products, but trust me, it's worth it. I forgot to show you the breadcrumbs... |
|
Sift flour and baking powder, add 125g sugar, salt, butter (margarine) and 2 eggs. |
|
Form a smooth dough, wrap in clingfilm and leave to chill for 30 minutes. |
|
Fill raisins with 2 tbsp.l. Calvados. I didn't have Calvados, so I poured brandy. For those who are not very fond of alcohol, leave the raisins without the filling. |
|
Wash and peel the apples, remove the seeds. |
|
Squeeze out the juice of a lemon. Leave 1-2 tbsp.l. for the glaze. Cut the apples in small pieces and drizzle with lemon juice to prevent them from turning black. |
|
Bring 350 ml of dry wine, 125 grams of sugar and cinnamon to the boil. Make sure you have a large saucepan. |
|
Bring the apples in and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. |
|
Stir in 2 boxes of vanilla pudding and 5 tbsp.Spoonfuls of wine and 5 tablespoons.tbsp cold water. |
|
Take pot with compote off heat, add liquid pudding and raisins. Stir well. |
|
Grease a baking dish (d=26 cm) with butter. Divide the dough into two unequal parts - 2/3 and 1/3. |
|
Roll out the larger part of the dough to a diameter of 32 cm. I roll it out between two sheets of baking paper - it's much more manageable that way. |
|
Roll out the dough into the mold, distributing it, making a rim the full height of the mold (6-7 cm). Prick the dough with a fork and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Spread the apple filling evenly on top. |
|
Whip the egg yolk with 1 tbsp.l. cream. Press the loose sides of the cake against the apples and brush with some of the egg yolk and cream mixture. |
|
Roll out the smaller part of the pastry to the diameter of the tart (26 cm), put it on the apples and press the edges together. I used a fork to help me, pressing the dough against the sides. Brush the pie with the remaining egg yolk mixture and prick it with a fork. Preheat oven to 200 gr., Bake for 50 minutes. |
|
Remove from oven. Let the pie cool slightly. Carefully take it off from the ring. What's up?? |
|
Dilute 50g of powdered sugar with 1-2 tbsp.l. lemon juice. Glaze the cake randomly. I sprinkle the rant of the cake with decorative sugar. |
|
And this is in all its glory! |
|
Only after it has cooled completely, let's slice it and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy... |
|
Enjoy!!! |
