Cooking Details
Melt butter over low heat. Sift flour and add baking powder to it. You can knead the dough using a food processor (grinder), or you can do it by hand. Better, of course, to feel its texture.
Hands will react more sensitively to the subtleties of kneading. Staying in a food processor for a long time can make the dough stiff. Therefore, after it gathers in a lump, turn off the unit. It is very convenient to work with this pleasant and soft test, it does not stick and does not crumble, it lays in an elastic mass. Lubricate the baking dish with butter. In addition to lubrication, you can use a simple technique so that it is easier to remove the cake in the finished state. Here it is: cut out two long strips from parchment, lay them crosswise on the bottom of the mold. Grease them too. The ends of the strips should extend beyond the limits of the form and hang down. They will help to get the cake out of the bowl. Apples need to be cut very thinly - they should not even make slices, but petals. This is conveniently done using a peeler. Put the prepared apples on a dough distributed in shape, sprinkle with cinnamon. Prepare a mixture of sour cream, eggs, sugar and a spoonful of flour. Liquid cream (let its consistency not bother you, it will thicken during baking) pour apples. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for fifty minutes. After extraction, the finished cake must be cooled in the mold. It is convenient to take it out by grasping the parchment strips. After you cook it yourself, you can see how beautiful and tasty Tsvetaevo’s pie is. A recipe with a photo can increase your appetite and convince you of the need to try it in practice.
