Apfelkuchen

• 4 eggs
• 250 g sugar
• 125 g butter
• 100 ml milk
• 300 g flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 3-4 medium sized Granny Smith (or similar) apples, peeled and cut into slices
• Cinnamon and sugar
• Almonds (optional)

Beat the eggs and sugar until foamy. Heat the milk and butter together to a boil, and beat into the egg mixture while still hot. Mix the flour and baking powder together and fold into the egg mixture. Grease and flour a 12" springform pan and pour in the batter. Lay the apple slices on top of the batter. Bake at 190C for ~40 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. After baking while still hot, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, and spritz topping lightly with water. Add almonds if desired.
