Prepare the apples by peeling them, removing the core towards the stem, quartering them, and cutting them into thin slices. To prevent the slices from turning brown, you can place them in a bowl of water with a splash of white vinegar or sprinkle them with freshly squeezed lemon juice.
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with baking powder. In a separate bowl, mix softened butter with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and whole milk until the mixture becomes frothy. Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, stirring each one in before adding the next. Mix the ingredients until everything is smooth.
Strain the apples and add them to the batter, stirring gently to incorporate them. Pour the mixture into a greased springform pan.
The baking time of the pie depends on the amount of apples used. It usually takes anywhere from 40 to 60 minutes at 320°F (160° C).
To finish, sprinkle the pie with a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon as soon as it comes out of the oven.For an extra special touch, you can decorate the pie with caramelized almonds or arrange a few buttered apple slices on top. Enjoy!
