Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake an apple pie in a frying pan? Prepare the ingredients for making the pie. All ingredients used to prepare the dough should be at room temperature, so remove them from the refrigerator in advance. Choose apples of those varieties that do not fall apart during heat treatment.

Step 2

Step 2
First of all, prepare the apples. Wash them well under running water and dry. Peel the apples, cut them into 4 parts and remove the centers. Cut the apples into fairly large pieces. I came across just the kind of apples that soften greatly when cooked. Without the skin they turned into puree, so I remade it and left the apples with the skin on. Grate the lemon zest and squeeze out a tablespoon of juice.

Step 3

Step 3
Take a frying pan with a thick bottom — it should hold heat well for the cake to bake. Place it on low heat. Pour lemon juice on it, add butter and half the amount of sugar. Stir and wait until the sugar dissolves.

Step 4

Step 4
Add apples to sugar and stir. Cover the pan with a lid and keep the apples there for about 5-10 minutes. Depending on the type of apple. Stir them once.

Step 5

Step 5
While the apples are cooking, prepare the dough. Break the eggs into a bowl. Add the remaining sugar, milk, lemon zest, semolina, flour and baking powder.

Step 6

Step 6
Mix all ingredients well. Pour in vegetable oil.

Step 7

Step 7
Stir the dough until completely homogeneous. It should turn out like pancake batter — thick, but at the same time fluid.

Step 8

Step 8
Meanwhile, the apples will be ready. Sprinkle them with cinnamon. Stir. If youʼre not a fan of cinnamon, donʼt add it. Pour the batter over the apples. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

Step 9
Cover the pan with a lid and turn the heat to low. Cook the pie for 30 to 40 minutes. Determine readiness with a toothpick — if you stick it in and then remove it from the pie, there should be no pieces of raw dough left on it.

Step 10

Step 10
Immediately invert the hot pie onto a plate, apples side up. Otherwise it may cool down and stick. Serve the pie warm or cold.
