Easy German Apple Pie (5-Minute No-Mix Recipe)

Ingredients:

• • Apples: 3 large, peeled and cut into pieces

• • Raisins: ½ cup (75g)
  • Cinnamon powder: 2 teaspoons
  • Wheat flour: 1 cup (130g)

• • Sugar: ½ cup (100g)
  • Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
  • Eggs: 3 large

• Extra sugar: 1 tablespoon (for beating with eggs)
• Butter: 100g, melted

Directions:

1. 1. Preheat the Oven:
      Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) with both upper and lower heat.

1. 1. Prepare the Apples:
      Peel and cut three large apples into bite-sized pieces. Place them evenly in the bottom of your baking dish.
   2. Add the Raisins and Cinnamon:
      Sprinkle the raisins and cinnamon powder over the apples, distributing them evenly.
   3. Layer the Dry Ingredients:
      In a bowl, combine the wheat flour, half a cup of sugar, and baking powder. Spread this dry mixture evenly over the apple layer.

1. 1. Beat the Eggs:
      In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a tablespoon of sugar using a fork until well combined. Pour the beaten egg mixture over the dry ingredients in the baking dish.
   2. Add the Melted Butter:
      Pour the melted butter evenly over the top of the mixture. This will help create a crispy, golden crust.
   3. Bake:
      Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden and set.

1. Serve:
   Let the pie cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
