For a book club I am in, we are reading Red Notice in which Russia plays a pivotal role in.
So I choose to bring a Russian Apple Pie – which is more of a cross between a cake and a pancake to bring. Smells good and can’t be any more easy to make. Now to see how I can adapt it for next time.

Ingredients:
- 4 large granny smith apple, peeled ( I used 5 and it still worked well)
- 1⁄2 cup sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 3 large eggs
Directions
- Remove core from the apples, cut in large chunks 2″, lay parchment paper on the bottom of your baking form (I used 8 inch spring form).
For my version I did soak the apples in lemon water then died them be using. - Lay the apples on top of parchment paper.
- Let eggs warm up for 10 minutes,then mix till light yellow and foamy; add sugar in, small portions at a time, let sugar dissolve; add flour; mix till you see air bubbles, pour mixture on the apples.
Bake at 375 for 55 mins. Cool. When pie is done flip upside down, Apples will be on the top. ( But I have to say the rougher side also looks pretty.)
Top with powdered sugar.
