Préparation:40 min.
Cooking: 45 min.
Resting: overnight.
- Peel and core the apples. Slice thinly, in a mixer or mandoline. Grease the cake tin
well and layer in the apple slices, pressing down so they all go in.
- Pre-heat oven to 210°C (fan-assisted).
- In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar till smooth and homogenous, and add the
eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Finally mix in the cornflour.
- Turn the mixture over the apples and bake for 2mins at 210°, then 20mins at 180°.If
the top starts to colour too much, cover with tinfoil to prevent it burning.
- Leave overnight at 10 – 15°.
- The cake should easily turn out of the tin onto a rectangular dish, and the layers will
appear as you cut into it.
