Cooking Directions
- Prepare the baking pan: Grease and line a round cake pan (about 24 cm or 9 inches) with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Mix the wet ingredients: In a large bowl, beat the eggs with sugar until light and creamy. Add melted butter, vanilla extract, and yogurt. Mix well until smooth.
- Combine the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
- Add the apples: Gently fold in half of the apple slices into the batter. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Arrange the remaining apple slices on top in a decorative pattern.
- Bake: Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for about 40–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Allow the cake to cool slightly in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
