Instructions
 

the shortcrust pastry

  • Mix the flour, salt and powdered sugar in a bowl. Cut the butter into flakes and work under the flour with a knife.
  • Mix the egg yolks with the water and add. Now knead the dough quickly and carefully. Still works best with the hands. Shape into a ball.
  • Cover the ball of dough with cling film and let it rest in the refrigerator for thirty minutes.
  • Grease and crumble a cake tin (28 cm). Roll out the dough between two layers of cling film until it is the desired size. (because of the edge larger than the base of the mold) Peel off the top film and put the dough into the mold. Remove the lower foil and press the dough into the mold. Level the edge. Prick several times with a fork.

the almond layer

  • Grate the marzipan and mix with the ground almonds, sugar and liquids to a thick paste.
  • Spread this on the shortcrust pastry base.

the apple-cream layer

  • Use an apple corer to remove the casing of the fruit and peel it. Cut into thin slices and place on top of the almond layer in a fan shape.
  • Mix the cream with the egg, sugar and cornstarch in a shaker and pour over the apples.
  • Bake in the preheated oven at 175 degrees lower / upper heat for about 35 minutes.

the cast

  • Mix the jelly with powdered sugar and a little lemon juice to a glaze and immediately after removing it with a spoon - a brush is not suitable here - spread it on the hot cake.
