Easy German Apple Pie (5-Minute No-Mix Recipe)

Ingredients:

Apples: 3 large, peeled and cut into pieces
Raisins: ½ cup (75g)
Cinnamon powder: 2 teaspoons
Wheat flour: 1 cup (130g)
Sugar: ½ cup (100g)
Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
Eggs: 3 large
Extra sugar: 1 tablespoon (for beating with eggs)
Butter: 100g, melted
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) with both upper and lower heat.
Prepare the Apples:

Peel and cut three large apples into bite-sized pieces. Place them evenly in the bottom of your baking dish.
Add the Raisins and Cinnamon:
Sprinkle the raisins and cinnamon powder over the apples, distributing them evenly.
Layer the Dry Ingredients:
In a bowl, combine the wheat flour, half a cup of sugar, and baking powder. Spread this dry mixture evenly over the apple layer.
Beat the Eggs:
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a tablespoon of sugar using a fork until well combined. Pour the beaten egg mixture over the dry ingredients in the baking dish.
Add the Melted Butter:
Pour the melted butter evenly over the top of the mixture. This will help create a crispy, golden crust.
Bake:
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden and set.
Serve:
Let the pie cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!

Serving Suggestions:

Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
Dust with powdered sugar for a pretty presentation.
