1kg (2 lb.) finely sliced apples
Put the sliced apples and the raisins in a bowl, add the lemon juice; set aside.
In another large bowl mix well the flour and lukewarm milk. Add the eggs one by one, sugar, vanilla, rum or brandy, spices, salt, and the ground hazelnuts. Mix well to make a slightly thick sauce. Drain apples and raisins in a colander and add them in the sauce. Mix.
Pour the mixture in a baking pan. Sprinkle the sliced almonds, 2 tbsp. sugar and some butter flakes on the top.
One hour in a preheated oven 180°C (350°F). Try with a knife.
Poster's Notes:
Sometimes my mother added chopped nuts, chunks of dried figs and/or dried apricots.
