Steps

45 minutes

1

Peel and core the apples, then grate them using the large holes of a box grater.
2

After grating, add the sugar and cinnamon to the apples and mix well.
3

Continue with the dough. In a mixer, beat the melted butter with the sugar, then add the egg yolk, baking powder, vanilla, and gradually the flour. Mix until a soft, crumbly dough forms.
4

Butter a round or ceramic baking dish. Press half the dough into the bottom and up the sides like a tart crust. Add the apple filling, then crumble the remaining dough over the top.
5

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) with fan for about 30 minutes.
6

Remove from the oven and, once slightly cooled, dust with powdered sugar and cinnamon.
7

I find it very sweet, so you can leave out the sugar from the filling if you prefer.
8

Enjoy it with hot tea or French press coffee.
9

A small variation for chocolate-caramel lovers: Use only the dough and press it into a 9x9 inch (22x22 cm) baking dish. Bake without filling. Replace the filling with 1 can caramelized sweetened condensed milk, 9 ounces (250 grams) dark chocolate, 2/3 cup (150 ml) heavy cream, and 1/3 cup (100 ml) milk.
10

Spread the caramel over the baked crust. Heat the milk and cream well, add the chocolate to melt, then pour over the caramel. Once cooled, refrigerate.
