Welcome to the channel and introduce the recipe.

Discuss the use of fresh apples, suggesting to use around 2 kilos for a thick layer, but can reduce to 1 kilo if desired.

Peel and prepare the apples, removing any bad parts.

Optional: Cook apples with sugar and cinnamon on the stove for about 20 minutes to caramelize them, but this step can be skipped.

Add flour step by step to the mixture to avoid a hard dough, mixing well as you go.

Grease the baking pan with olive oil and flour.

Layer the dough in the pan, ensuring it's even and has some crunch on the edges.

Sprinkle sugar on top before baking.

Bake the cake and check for doneness with a toothpick.

Let the cake cool for at least 20-30 minutes before serving.
