1

Beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are well combined.

Add sugar to the eggs and whisk well.

3

Add vanilla powder and salt, and whisk together.

4

Sift cake flour and baking powder into the egg mixture and whisk until no lumps remain.

Add warm milk in three parts, whisking to make a smooth batter that is watery, similar to grape juice.

6

Peel and core the apples, cutting them into four pieces.

7

Slice the apples using a Japanese mandarin or a thin-bladed sharp knife.

8

Stir the batter before adding the sliced apples to ensure even distribution.

9

Toss the apples in the batter until they are evenly coated.

Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined cake pan, ensuring there are no empty spaces.

11

Sprinkle a handful of almond slices on top if desired.

Let the cake cool to room temperature on a wire rack.

14

Unmold the cake carefully as it is very soft.

15

Transfer the cake to a serving dish and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
