Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- A pinch of salt
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 50 grams (3.5 tablespoons) melted butter
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
Instruction
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt until foamy.
- Add the sugar and lemon zest to the eggs and whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly thickened.
- Stir in the melted butter and mix well.
- Gradually add the flour, whisking until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
Step 2: Prepare the Apples
- Peel, core, and slice the apples thinly.
- Gently fold the apple slices into the batter, ensuring they’re evenly coated.
Step 3: Cook the Apple Pie
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
- Pour the apple and batter mixture into the pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Cover the pan with a lid and cook on low heat for about 10-12 minutes, or until the bottom is golden and set.
Step 4: Flip and Finish
- Carefully flip the pie onto a plate, then slide it back into the pan to cook the other side for another 5-7 minutes, or until golden and fully cooked.
Step 5: Serve
- Slide the apple pie onto a serving plate.
- Let it cool slightly, then slice and serve warm. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with honey for extra sweetness.
Optional Serving Ideas
- Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg for a spiced flavor.
- Drizzle caramel sauce for an extra indulgence.
