Ask the hotline about this step!Torta di Mele is a very thin, rich cake that will bake down to about one-half inch. It will cut easier if you let it cool before serving. But you can reheat it in the oven before serving.
Ask the hotline about this step!Is it supposed to be 1 AND 1/2 cups of sugar to only 1/2 a cup of sugar or is that a typo?
I make a lot of tarts and have made tons of apple tarts (well, maybe not a TON), but have never seen a tart made quite like this. It looks like a very quick and easy way to do a great tart. I can't wait to try it! Do the apples sink to the bottom of the batter with the batter baking on top?
havefaith- nope not a typo!!! this an amazing carmelized apple cake with barely any flour!
when I first had it at the trattoria, it was baked in a wood-burning oven and really caramelized!
and yes only 1/2 cup flour- sometime even less!!!
ChezSuzanna- there is so little batter- it all bakes together and this tart is mostly all apples!
