French Apple Cake

Ingredients:
All purpose flour - 3/4 cup
Baking powder - 3/4 tsp
Salt - a pinch
Apples - 4 (if you can, choose 4 different kinds)
Eggs - 2
Sugar - 3/4 cup
Dark rum - 3 tbsp
Vanilla esc - 1/2 tsp
Unsalted butter - 8 tbsp(melted and cooled)


Method:
  • Generously butter an 8-inch springform pan and put it on a baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper and put the springform on it.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in small bowl.
  • Peel the apples, cut them in half and remove the cores. Cut the apples into 1- to 2-inch chunks.
  • In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk until they're foamy. 
  • Pour in the sugar and whisk for a minute or so to blend. Whisk in the rum and vanilla.
  • Whisk in half the flour and when it is incorporated, add half the melted butter, then flour.
  • Add remaining butter, mixing gently after each addition so that you have a smooth, rather thick batter. Switch to a rubber spatula and fold in the apples, turning the fruit so that it's coated with batter. Scrape the mix into the pan and poke it around a little with the spatula so that it's even.
  • Bake in a preheated oven(OTG) at 180°C for 50-60 mins.
  • Transfer to a cooling rack and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Lovely french apple cake is ready.
Note:
You can skip using rum, instead can add little cinnamon powder.
