Ingredients

3/4 c. butter (3/4 cup)

4 eggs

About 1 Tbsp vanilla sugar

1 pinch salt

1 pinch baking powder

1 1/2 c flour

1 1/3 c sugar (white or brown)

1 lb sweet apples (a sweet sort, I picked Golden Delicious apples)

some powdered sugar

4 teaspoons Calvadosor Apple Brandy.

Directions

Melt the butter, let it cool down a bit while you peel your apples,

cut them in quarters and cut the center out.

Put your sugar, eggs, vanilla sugar, butter, salt and calvados in a big bowl and mix it until it's foamy.

Next, slice your apples into thin slices

Pour the flour and the pinch of baking powder into your egg, sugar, and butter mixture and mix it up until it's smooth.

Then put about 4/5th of your apples in there, and gently mix it up until all slices are covered in batter.

Grease a round cake pan (medium sized) and pour everything into it, smooth it out.

arrange the remaining apples nicely on top of the batter.

Bake the French apple pie 395°F on the lowest level in your oven for about 50 minutes.

Please check on the pie regularly, and at around 35-40 minutes, if you see the top getting brown, cover it up with foil and finish baking.

Let the French apple pie cool off for a while, and then dust the powdered sugar over the pie!

If you don't have vanilla sugar or apple brandy, you can substitute them with vanilla cream liquor. It adds a really nice flavor. This is a nice recipe, however, I don't recommend cooking this pie at such a high temperature nor on the bottom rack as it burned after 25 minutes the first time I made it. I would recommend baking it on the middle rack at 325 degrees.
