[the-same-life-expectancy-as-a-butterfly] APFELSCHNITTEN



Here we are again! After decades and ages of absence.... Oh, come on...I’m not that bad!
As I’ve said in my last post, a cake was on the run! And it actually came.... It actually was a short visit ‘cause I’ve baked it in the early afternoon, and by the end of the day it was all eaten. But that’s the beauty of the binomial friends for dinner - cakes ---> the cake has the same life expectancy as a butterfly.


So. That’s the history which stands behind this cake: a few weeks ago, when I was shopping in Lola Rennt’s supermarket (which is the closest to my house in Berlin) I’ve found a sort of free Magazine that contained a small number of good recipes and a huge amount of advertisement. In these recipes there was the one I used to bake this Apfel cake....so, here you are my first experience with a German Schnitten!

What do you need:
  • 1 Kitchen
  • 1 Oven
  • 1 Food scale
  • 1 Bowl
  • 1 Mixer

Ingredients:
  • 500g Apples
  • 100g Sugar
  • 50g Butter
  • Baking powder
  • 175g Flour
  • 1/2 Lemon (Zest)
  • 200ml Milk
  • 1 Egg (danke Checc.)

  1. Peel and dice the apples
  2. Mix the butter with the sugar using the mixer, and when you arrive to a foamy and bright yellow compost, add the egg and continue to mix until you can not distinguish the ingredients.
  3. Mix the flour and baking powder. Pour the milk into the sugar-egg-butter batch, mix it and add the flour spoon by spoon and the lemon zest.
  4. Pour the compost into a fireproof-pan (over baking paper if you don’t want to use more butter...), add apple-dices, sprinkle with sugar (if you want your cake to be crusty) and put it into the oven (180°C) for 45 minutes.


Serve with a lot of love....and some booze if you want the evening to become interesting!
P.S. ______we also had ©Cluedo!

Enjoy it and Bis bald.
