Schwedische Apfeltorte | Swedish Apple Pie

English version below


Keine Ahnung, warum der Kuchen schwedische Apfeltorte heißt. Aber so kenne ich ihn. :) Super um Äpfel zu verarbeiten, wenn sie nicht mehr so 100% bildschön sind - oder man spart sich Zeit in dem man direkt Apfelmus nimmt...

Can't live without Apple Pie

Die deutsche Übersetzung findet ihr unter dem englischen Rezept!

We had apple crumble last week. I keep remembering how great apple desserts are. I usually love my desserts with chocolate, but the truth is: Apple desserts are great, too!

Ingredients:

For the crust:
250g flour
125g vegan butter (I used Alsan)
60ml water
40g of sugar
1/2 tea spoon of baking powder

For the filling:
850g of apples (this is the weight before you core, peel, and cut them)
300g of apple sauce [recipe for homemade apple sauce here]

For the crumble:
100g vegan butter (I used Alsan)
125g sugar
180g flour

The boyfriend even suggested we'd do an "unboxing" video. I was tempted to do that. Then I was to lazy and only took pictures.

I truly feel like I am a little too excited about a collapsable plastic box full of vegetables. But that's okay. Other people go crazy over shoes with a red sole. I guess when my braincells were programmed, I got lots of those "books and food" ones and very few from the fashion department. Fine with me.

And here it is in all its glory:
