Ingredients

Main Ingredients:

  • 8 eggs
  • 10 tablespoons of sugar
  • 4 tablespoons of flour
  • Fresh fruits such as apples, sliced

Preparation Time

  • Total: 30 minutes (including prep and bake time)

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Begin by beating the eggs with sugar until the mixture thickens. The consistency should be such that a finger-drawn line disappears slowly.
  2. Ensure the batter is thick and free of liquid egg residue. If using a hand blender, avoid overheating the mixture to maintain its desired texture.
  3. Once the egg-sugar mixture is ready, gently fold in the sifted flour. Mix cautiously and lightly to retain airiness.
  4. Prepare the baking tin by lightly greasing the sides and bottom. Dust the surface with a thin layer of semolina, ensuring coverage along the sides as well.
  5. Arrange sliced fruits, such as apples, at the bottom of the tin. Pour the prepared batter over the fruit in a uniform layer.
  6. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Place the tin in the oven and bake for approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
  7. It's crucial not to open the oven door during baking to prevent the cake from collapsing.
  8. Check the cake's readiness with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
  9. Allow the cake to cool before optionally dressing it with your choice of toppings.
  10. Serve the cake as a light and fruity dessert or snack.

Tips

  • Be cautious when beating the mixture; over-blending may lead to a flat cake.
  • Experiment with different fruits like pears or berries for variety.
  • For additional flavor, consider using a splash of vanilla extract or a hint of cinnamon.
