This year, I made a really cool apple cake for Anya’s birthday. It’s about 80% apple — very thinly sliced.

It’s called Gateau Invisible

Ingredients

• 1 pound Fuji apples
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tablespoons melted butter
• 3/4 cup flour

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F
2. Peel and core apples. Slice into very thin slices. Soak in lemon water.
3. Wisk eggs until they are frothy and add sugar.
4. Add milk and melted butter.
5. Sift the flour into liquid mixture.
6. Add sliced apples and stir gently to coat apple slices in batter.
7. Pour the batter into a parchment lined bread loaf pan.
8. Bake for 40 minutes, cover with foil, then bake for another 10 minutes.
9. Remove from pan and allow to cool
10. Pour caramel sauce over cake and serve.
