Shortbread:
– 350g of flour
– 1 baking powder
– A pinch of salt
– 80g of sugar
– 1 vanilla sugar
– 175g of butter
– 2 eggs
– 60ml of milk
Vanilla cream:
– 1 egg yolk
– 3 tablespoons of vanilla pudding
– 350 ml of milk
– 80g of sugar
– 1 vanilla sugar
– 60g of butter
And more:
– 3 red apples
– 3 green apples
– Juice of 1 lemon
– A pinch of crystal sugar for sprinkling
– 2 spoons of honey for coating
Method of preparation:
1. Sift flour and baking powder through a sieve. Add a pinch of salt, sugar and vanilla sugar. Mix all the dry ingredients and add cold butter cut into cubes.
Knead until the mixture becomes crumbly. Add eggs and milk and continue kneading until we get a smooth dough.
Divide the obtained dough into two equal parts, wrap each part in a stretch film and leave it for 1/2 hour in the refrigerator.
2. While the dough is resting, we will cook the vanilla cream.
Beat the egg yolks, pudding powder and part of the milk until all the lumps disappear.
Mix with the rest of the milk, add sugar and vanilla sugar and cook over low heat until the cream boils. Then add the butter, stir until it melts and remove from the heat. Cover with plastic wrap to prevent a crust from forming and leave to cool.
3. Cut the apples in half and then into quarters, remove the seeds and divide each quarter of the apple into 4 slices. Sprinkle them with lemon juice so they don’t darken.
4. Roll out the 1st part of the dough from the refrigerator with a rolling pin to about 0.8 cm.
We put the dough in a mold with a diameter of 26 cm, pat it down and press the edges. Remove the excess dough. Prick the dough in the mold with a fork so that it rises evenly.
5. Pour the vanilla cream over the dough and smooth it out.
6. Roll out the second part of the dough to a thickness of about 0.5 cm. Cut it into strips 1.5 cm wide
7. We arrange the apples in a circle around the walls of the mold, and in between we place dough dividers. Each row of apples is a different color. We row until we reach the middle of the model. Finally, sprinkle with granulated sugar
Bake at 180°C (360°F) for about 40 minutes
We coat the finished cake with honey and enjoy its magical taste 😋
Good appetite 💖
