Ingredients
 

For the shortcrust pastry:

  • 275 g Flour
  • 150 g Butter
  • 70 g Powdered sugar
  • 70 g Ger. Almonds
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 pinch Salt

For the filling 1

  • 125 g Butter
  • 125 g Sugar
  • 125 g Grated almonds
  • 2 Free range eggs
  • 60 g Flour

Filling 2

  • 1 Vanilla pudding powder - Backfest - Dr. Oetker
  • 250 ml Milk

Apples and decorations

  • 6 Sour apples
  • 100 ml Lemon juice
  • 100 g Quince jelly goes well with apricot
  • 0,5 Ripe pomegranate

Instructions
 

  • Prepare shortcrust pastry and chill - then roll out 5 mm thick and place in a greasy tart pan. Peel 6-8 apples and cut into slices - drizzle with lemon juice
  • Beat the butter at room temperature with the sugar until frothy, add the eggs and stir in the almond and flour. Then pour onto the shortcrust pastry
  • Prepare the vanilla pudding according to the package instructions and spread it on the nut mixture. Of course, you can also use a home-made vanilla pudding.
  • Place the apple slices in a circle and bake at 160 degrees (if necessary cover a little at the end) with convection for about 45-55 minutes.
  • Let cool down a little, meanwhile heat the jelly and remove the pomegranate. Put the pomegranate seeds in the jelly and spread it on the cake. Of course you can also find the homemade orange-pomegranate jelly here in my cookbook Orange-pomegranate spread - jelly -
  • In the recipe, the shortcrust pastry was not pre-baked (blind baked) - however, I noticed that the shortcrust pastry was not quite so "through" - which may also have been due to my creamed mold.
