Apple pie recipes
Can you still remember the delicious little Florentine bakers? How we always pressed our noses at the cake counter as children ... - wonderful! Today we still enjoy the crispy little things - not as a thaler, but as a sprinkle on our apple pie.
Apple, nut and almond kernel - we especially like to eat. And that's why we refine our apple pie with Florentine crumble. The base: a buttery shortcrust pastry - ennobled with almonds and cranberries. Below - fruity apples and a bed of marzipan cream.
Apple pie alone is a poem - with a topping of crunchy crumbs - irresistible. We especially like our fruity treat with a dollop of cream, lukewarm from the oven - just like in the past, only better!
At least as delicious: apple sour cream cake.
