Wintertime is apple pie, or baked apple time. Best served with a little cinnamon
and a warm glass of cocoa in the colder months and the
soul warmer is ready. How would it be if the still warm cake tasted like a cross between apple pie, marzipan potato and baked apple? And that's exactly what our apple cake with
marzipan icing is made of.
Ingredients
- 1.2 kg sour apples
- 1 organic lemon
- 400g flour type 405
- 220g butter
- 200g raw marzipan paste
- ½ L milk
- 1 packet vanilla sugar
- 1 packet custard powder (for ½ L milk for cooking)
- 5 eggs
- 180g + 75g sugar
- 2 tbsp hamburger baked apples
- optional some caster sugar
preparation
Peel, quarter and core the apples and cut into wedges.
Mix the flour, sugar, baked apple and vanilla sugar. Add the butter and knead into crumbles.
Pour the crumble mixture into a greased springform pan and press down firmly.
Spread the apple slices over the crumble.
Cut the marzipan mixture into small pieces. Mix the custard powder with 5-6 tablespoons of milk. Bring the rest of the milk to the boil. Add the custard powder mixture and 75 g sugar to the boiling milk and bring to the boil while stirring. Add the marzipan pieces one by one and stir in.
Spread the marzipan icing evenly over the apples.
Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 180 °C top/bottom heat (or 160 °C fan oven) for approx. 35-40 minutes.
Sprinkle the cake with caster sugar.
Serve the cake slightly lukewarm.
Recipe note
Tips:
- For an even more intense baked apple flavor, you can also season the apples with a little cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg.
- If the cake gets too dark, you can cover it with aluminum foil during the last few minutes of baking.
- The cake can also be enjoyed cold.
