Yummy Apple Cake Recipe From France

Hello decor8 readers! It’s me Emilie again. Twice in one day, it’s a treat for me but a bigger treat for you because I have a delicious recipe to share from my father that I told you about last month… So many of you (nearly 100!) wrote in requesting it so here is the recipe for apple cake from our French kitchen here in Paris.

Playing With Food: Mellow Yellow

This is your list from the grocery store, you will need:

2 eggs
3 apples
100 grams of sugar
100 grams of flour
15 cubes of sugar
50 grams butter
50 grams of oil
1 packet of yeast

In a mold, place 15 cubes of sugar. Put this dish over a fire, and let the sugar melt to form a caramel. Be careful – it is hot! Turn the mold so that the caramel spreads well. Peel and cut the apples into chunks, put them in the mold. Mix all other ingredients and arrange on apples. Bake at 180 ° C for 35 to 40 minutes.

That’s it!

    Emilie thanks you for sharing! I was one of the requesters!!!!!
    One doubt is how much yeast does your package weights? could we replace it by baking powder?
    thanks a lot

    yummy, yes. Please let’s know the kind and amount of yeast. The only yeast in package I know is for the bread. Which kind are you using? Thank you.

    It looks delicious! I’d quite like to know how much yeast as I’ve never put it into a dessert before and wouldn’t want to over do it! :-) I’m guessing a small 10g packet? Is it the same as the yeast used in bread?
