Bulgarian apple pie

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.

In a bowl, mix the sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Set aside to macerate for 15 minutes.

In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in vanilla extract and milk until combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.

Grease a baking dish and sprinkle bread crumbs on the bottom.

Pour half of the batter into the prepared dish and spread evenly.

Layer the apple mixture over the batter, distributing evenly.

Top with the remaining batter, spreading it over the apples.

Sprinkle chopped walnuts on top for added texture.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until golden brown.

Allow to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
