Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 4 eggs
- 8 grams of vanilla sugar
- 130 grams of granulated sugar
- 125 milliliters of milk
- 160 milliliters of sunflower oil
- 200 grams of all-purpose flour
- 7 grams of baking powder
For the Apple Mixture:
- 200 grams of apples
- 30 grams of granulated sugar
- 1 gram of cinnamon powder
For the Vanilla Pudding:
- 38 grams of instant vanilla pudding mix
- 40 grams of granulated sugar
- 500 milliliters of milk
For the Garnish:
- 250 grams of Biscoff spread
- Walnuts, chopped
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cake Batter:
- Break the eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add the vanilla sugar and granulated sugar. Beat on high speed for 5-7 minutes until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the milk and mix until well combined. Follow with the sunflower oil, mixing until fully incorporated.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into the egg mixture. Using a spatula, gently fold the flour into the batter in eight motions, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
- Pour 350 grams of the batter into a parchment-lined baking pan. Preheat the oven to 175°C (347°F) and bake for 8-10 minutes.
- Prepare the Apple Mixture:
- Peel and dice the apples into small cubes. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the apple pieces with the sugar and cinnamon for 5-7 minutes, or until the apples soften and start to caramelize. Let the apple mixture cool.
- Prepare the Vanilla Pudding:
- In a deep bowl, combine the vanilla pudding mix, sugar, and milk. Whisk until smooth. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
- Assemble the Cake:
- Remove the partially baked cake from the oven. Spread ¾ of the vanilla pudding evenly over the cake. Sprinkle the cooled apple mixture on top.
- Pour the remaining cake batter over the apples and pudding. Return the cake to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.
- Add the Biscoff Topping:
- In a small saucepan, gently heat the Biscoff spread until it becomes liquid. Pour the warm Biscoff over the cooled cake, spreading it evenly.
- Garnish with chopped walnuts. Cover the cake and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serving:
- Once chilled, slice the cake into pieces. For an extra touch, garnish each slice with additional Biscoff cookies if desired.
Enjoy!
