Apple cake

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   The cake turns out very tasty and light. And in terms of cooking too. The hardest part is preparing the apples. They need to be peeled and cored.

2. STEP 2

   

   Melt the margarine in a water bath or on the stove, but be careful not to fry it. Add 2 tablespoons of sugar and dissolve in margarine. I use margarine. I’ve never made it with butter, so I can’t say how it turns out. When the sugar dissolves, cool and add 0.5 l. sour cream and soda, slaked with vinegar. Mix well until smooth and gradually add flour. The dough should be soft, but so that it can be rolled out.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the dough into 8 pieces. Roll into balls, cover with a towel and leave to rest. Let's make the cream.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut the apples into cubes into a cauldron and add 200 g. Sahara. If you like your apples sweeter or sour, add a little more sugar. Simmer the apples covered and over low heat, stirring occasionally. The apples are ready when they are not crunchy. Remove from heat and leave to cool.

5. STEP 5

   

   While the apples are cooling, let's make the cakes. Roll out 1 ball, 4-5 mm thick. The diameter is approximately 35-40 cm. You can make them larger or smaller to suit the shape of your cake. Place the rolled out dough on a baking sheet and make cuts with a knife. Don't be shy with this one! Do more and more often, it will bubble less. And into an oven heated to 180 C* for 7-10 minutes. But watch out, the ovens are different... When the crust on top gets a little darker, take it out.

6. STEP 6

   

   When you take out the finished cake, place the shape of your future cake on it and cut out along the contour. For me, this is an ordinary plate.

7. STEP 7

   

   Bake all the cakes this way. Do not eat the scraps. We will need them later. Add 0.5 sour cream to the cooled apples and mix well.

8. STEP 8

   

   When all the cakes are baked, place the scraps on a baking sheet and brown in the oven. Then take them out and chop them.

9. STEP 9

   

   Coat each cake with cream. Sprinkle the topmost cake layer, coated with cream, with crushed scraps.

10. STEP 10

    

    Leave the cake to soak for 6 hours, or better yet, in the refrigerator overnight. Bon appetit!
