Ingredients:
2 eggs
2 apples (peeled and sliced)
125 g of sugar
125 g of seed oil (sunflower or rapeseed)
125 g milk
1 sachet of yeast powder (16 g)
650 g flour (type 00 or sifted common flour)
Natural aroma of lemon or orange (or fresh zest)
Icing sugar to sprinkle (optional)
Preparation of the dough:
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until pale and sparkling.
Add the oil and milk, and mix well.
Incorporate the lemon/orange aroma (a few drops or the zest of a fruit).
Sift the flour with the baking powder and gradually incorporate them into the liquid mixture, until you get a soft dough, neither too liquid nor too compact.
Assembly:
Pour the dough into a round mold lined with baking paper (as in the photo).
Place the apple slices attractively, pressing them slightly against the dough (making stripes toward the center for a flower effect).
Baking:
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (fan oven).
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and well cooked (dry knife test).
Finished:
Let cool and sprinkle with icing sugar for a crispy, sweet touch.
