Cinnamon Apple Pie

Ingredients:

• 4–5 apples (medium size, peeled and sliced)

• 180 g all-purpose flour

• 5 g baking powder (~1 tsp)

• 120 g sugar

• 5 g ground cinnamon (~1 tsp)

• 3 eggs

• Pinch of salt

• 100 g milk (~100 ml)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Apples

• Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples.

• Toss them in a bowl with half the cinnamon (2.5 g) and 1 tbsp of the sugar.

• Let them sit while you make the batter (they’ll release some juices and soften slightly).

2. Make the Batter

• In a large bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and salt until light and frothy (about 2–3 minutes).

• Stir in the milk.

• In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and the remaining cinnamon.

• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until smooth (don’t overmix).

3. Assemble the Pie

• Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).

• Grease a 22–24 cm (9–10 inch) pie dish or springform pan.

• Pour half the batter into the pan.

• Layer half the apples over the batter.

• Add the rest of the batter, then top with the remaining apples.

Optional: Sprinkle a little extra sugar and cinnamon on top for a caramelized crust.

4. Bake

• Bake in the preheated oven for 40–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden.

5. Cool and Serve

• Let cool slightly before serving. Great warm or at room temp.

• Serve plain or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
