"I still have some apples from my sister-in-law, they can be easily stored on the balcony. This time I wanted to bring some Christmas taste to a cake and so I added Amaretti and Amaretto."

ingredients

  • 300 gram Flour
  • 1 Egg
  • 110 gram Sugar
  • 1 zested Orange
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Sugar
  • 180 gram Butter cut into pieces
  • 5 Apples
  • 1 juiced Lemon
  • 100 gram Amarettini
  • 20 ml Amaretto Liqueur

Method

  • Step 1

    Mix the flour with the sugar, vanilla sugar, orange zest and the butter pieces, knead it quickly together to a soft dough. Put into the fridge for 30 minutes.

  • Step 2

    For the filling peel the apples and dice them, put them into the lemon juice. Leave 1/3 of the dough back into the fridge but roll the 2/3 of the dough out thinly.

  • Step 3

    Crumble together a baking paper and put it under the water, shake water off and put it into the baking dish. This way it will fit perfectly.

  • Step 4

    Put the dough into the baking dish and pull the sides up.

  • Step 5

    Crumble the Amaretti cookies and put them onto the bottom. Add the apples and flatten them, then pour the Amaretto Liqueur over the apples.

  • Step 6

    Roll the 1/3 of the dough out thinly (I did that in between cling-foil) and put it onto the cake. Push the sides together.

  • Step 7

    Bake in the oven at 200 C for approx. 40 minutes. Let cool and sprinkle with icing sugar.
