🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Melt the butter gently in the microwave or in a small saucepan until liquid. Let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar for 2 to 3 minutes, until pale and frothy.

  3. 3

    Add the melted warm butter then the milk, and mix carefully to obtain a homogeneous mixture.

  4. 4

    Sift the flour, baking powder and pinch of salt, then gradually incorporate them into the mixture. Mix gently.

  5. 5

    Roughly chop the whole almonds. Add them to the batter.

  6. 6

    Peel the apples, remove the core, then cut them into thin slices. Sprinkle with lemon juice if prepared in advance.

  7. 7

    Pour the batter into a greased and floured cake pan. Arrange the apple slices harmoniously on top.

  8. 8

    Generously sprinkle the sliced almonds over the apples.

  9. 9

    Gently brush the top of the cake with honey using a pastry brush.

  10. 10

    Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (static heat) for 45 to 50 minutes. Check for doneness with a knife.

Tips & Tricks
  • Cut the apples just before using them or sprinkle them with lemon juice to prevent oxidation.
  • Replace the honey with maple syrup or apricot glaze for a different flavor.
  • If the top of the cake browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil halfway through baking.
