Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake an apple pie with sour cream in the oven? To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Take the highest grade flour. Large, selected eggs are needed. If the eggs are small, take 4-5 pieces. Take unscented vegetable oil. If the apples are small, take 4-5 pieces. Turn on the oven to 180 degrees in advance.

Step 2

Step 2
Combine the eggs with vanilla sugar and salt and beat with a mixer until fluffy, gradually adding sugar. The airiness of your cake depends on how you beat the eggs. You can’t beat the mixture until it’s white and thick—the whites will lose the air bubbles that lift the dough. And in this case, even baking powder will not help. The dough will either not rise at all or rise very weakly.

Step 3

Step 3
Continuing to beat, add sour cream and vegetable oil. Beat until smooth.

Step 4

Step 4
Add the flour sifted with baking powder in parts. Stir the dough with a spatula until smooth. The dough should be medium thick. You may need a little more or a little less flour. Read more about flour and baking powder in the articles below the steps.

Step 5

Step 5
Peel one apple, remove the core and seeds and cut into slices. For this dish, it is better to take sweet and sour apples, dense, not loose. Apples with loose pulp will quickly boil and lose their shape.

Step 6

Step 6
Line a baking dish (Ø 20-22 cm) with parchment and grease the sides with butter. Pour in half the dough and smooth it out. Place chopped apples on the dough. Read about how to choose a baking dish in a separate article at the link at the end of the recipe.

Step 7

Step 7
Spread the remaining dough evenly on top.

Step 8

Step 8
Cut the remaining apples directly with the skin into very thin slices or grate them on a special grater. I took the second two apples with bright red skin to make the finished pie more beautiful.

Step 9

Step 9
Place several apple slices together and press into the dough in a circle, giving the pie the appearance of a rose. Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 180℃ for about 1 hour. Check readiness with a wooden skewer — it should come out dry. Read more about how to choose the right baking time and temperature in the article. The link is at the end of the recipe.

Step 10
Remove the cake from the pan, cool slightly and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Bon appetit!
