OMA'S APFELKUCHEN (GRANDMA'S APPLE CAKE)

  • Grease and flour a 9.5-inch cake springform pan. You can also line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • Beat the butter, sugar, and vanilla extract with your hand mixer in a large bowl. Add the egg and beat again.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the mixture to the liquid ingredients in small increments while using your hand mixer (and later your hands) on a low setting to avoid the flour from making a mess. You'll have to stop using your mixer about halfway through since the dough will become quite sticky. Just use your hands for the last bit and make sure not to overmix! Stop once everything is well combined and there are no lumps.
