Instructions

1. Peel and core the apples and cut into slices. Drizzle with 4 tablespoons of lemon juice and mix. For the dough, beat the cream, lemon or orange peel, sugar and vanilla sugar until frothy. Add the eggs one by one and stir in. Mix the flour and baking powder, sift into the foam mixture and fold in. Spread the dough on a greased baking sheet (half the amount in a greased springform pan) and cover with the apples. Leave a small edge of the dough (in the springform pan, pull the dough up a little at the edge). Bake in the preheated oven at 200 ° C top / bottom heat on the middle rack for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the icing: Melt the butter in a smaller saucepan. Then stir in sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice and milk and bring to the boil. Stir in the hazelnuts or almonds (if you like, you can also add a handful of raisins). Spread the icing on the baked apple dough with a spoon, leaving some edge free. Put the whole thing in the oven again and bake for another 15 minutes. This is a repeatedly tested variation of the impossible apple cake from Helga2. The quantities listed are intended for a whole baking tray - simply halve the quantities for a 30 springform pan.
