Hungarian Apple Cake

  1. 1. Weigh 4-6 eggs (depending on size; should weigh about 8-10oz).
  2. 2. Separate white from yolks.
  3. 3. Weigh out butter, sugar and flour – each, equal in weight to the total weight of the eggs.

 

  1. 4. Cream together sugar and butter.
  2. 5. Add egg yolks gradually, continue creaming.
  3. 6. Add flour gradually, mix well.
  4. 7. Add some cinnamon and a pinch of salt and lemon rind (one lemon).

 

  1. 8. Peel apples 2-4 depending on size of the apples (I like to use Golden Delicious for this) and cut them to little cubes, and then add to the dough.

 

  1. 9. Beat egg whites till stiff and fold into the dough.

 

10. Bake at moderate heat (325F) in a buttered and floured standard 9 inch springform cake pan until the top is golden brown (about 40 min but start checking after ~30 min).

 

ENJOY!!!
