1. From all the ingredients, we make a dough, wrap it in foil and leave to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Then roll it out and put it in a butter-greased cake mold. Cut the protruding dough with the edge of the mold.
2. Mix 4 tablespoons of apple puree with a pinch of cinnamon and spread it on the dough.
3. Peel the apples, get rid of the kernels and cut them into slices.Mix them with lemon juice, the rest of the apple puree and roughly grated marzipan.Apply the apple mixture evenly to the dough into the cake mould.
4. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 30 minutes, then sprinkle the cake with almond crisps and bake for another 15 minutes.
Our tip: You'd better prepare your own puree from apples at home, it's too sweet to buy.
