Mary asked me to localize this recipe for her (the German version is posted here: Bretonischer Apfelkuchen). Her wish is my command.
Ingredients:
For the batter:
150 g (1 1/2 sticks) butter
4 eggs
150 g (3/4 cup) sugar
20 g (2 tbsp) vanilla sugar (buy it, make your own, or use 1 tbsp of liquid vanilla flavoring instead. Being a good German, I use Dr. Oetker. :-))
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
150 g (1 1/2 cups) flour
4 medium size apples
butter to grease the form
4 eggs
150 g (3/4 cup) sugar
20 g (2 tbsp) vanilla sugar (buy it, make your own, or use 1 tbsp of liquid vanilla flavoring instead. Being a good German, I use Dr. Oetker. :-))
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
150 g (1 1/2 cups) flour
4 medium size apples
butter to grease the form
Dust with:
20 g powdered suger
10 g (1 tbsp) vanilla sugar
10 g (1 tbsp) vanilla sugar
How to do it:
- Melt the butter in a saucepan. Let it cool off, but not harden.
- Beat the eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar and salt into a creamy mass.
- Add the cooled butter, baking powder, and flour.
- Pre-heat the oven to 200C aka 400F.

- Set on a cooling rack for a few minutes. Remove from the spring form pan. Dust with the powdered sugar/vanilla sugar mix.
- Enjoy!
