German Apple Cake
1/2 Cup butter
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
11/4 Cup flour
1 egg
2 Tbsp. cream
4-5 large apples, peeled and sliced
Mix dry ingredients and butter like a pie crust until lumpy. I use a pastry blender. Add egg and cream; mix well. Pat into a glass baking dish, pressing and spreading the dough about halfway up the side. I use a large round Corning quiche pan. Arrange apple slices on the dough.
Topping:
3/4 Cup sugar
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
11/2 Tbsp. flour
2 heaping tsp. butter
Mix all the ingredients with hands and spread over the apples. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until apples are done.
I usually serve this with a nice vanilla ice cream.
Thank you for the compliments, this so easy, it is almost embarrassing to accept the praise.
