Wash, peel, quarter and core the apples. In a small bowl, whip the egg whites stiff. Mix butter, sugar and egg yolk for approx. 4 min. Then combine the flour with the baking powder and add it alternately with milk to the mixture. Mix well. And last fold in the stiff egg whites.
Grease a 28 cm ⌀ springform pan with some butter and pour in the batter. Now slice the prepared apple quarters, but keep the quarters together. Then place them on the batter and press them a little down. If you like you can sprinkle the apples with some cinnamon.
Bake the cake at 200 degrees top- and bottom heat for about 30-35 minutes, until golden brown. Serve still warm and top with powdered sugar or vanilla sauce if you like and enjoy. I would really appreciate it if you would rate my recipe, Thanks. ;)
