In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour and baking powder.

Put the dough into a container and let it chill in the fridge.

In the meantime, soak the raisins in the rum.

Mix the cream and milk in a cookpot, add the vanilla pudding mix and stir.

Bring to a boil while constantly stirring.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Peel the apples, remove the core. If necessary, cut the apples a little shorter.

Grease the sides of a baking pan with butter, put parchment paper on the bottom.

Take the dough out of the fridge and evenly cover the bottom and sides of the baking pan with the dough.

Add the apples to the baking pan.

Fill some raisins into the core of the apples.

Now add the pudding all over, into and around the apples.

Bake in the oven for about 70 minutes.

Let cool completely. If you want to serve the cake warm, put it into a warm oven for a while before serving.
