- Peel the apples, cut them into 4 pieces, remove the core and seeds and cut each quarter into thin slices.

- Cook over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until the apples are very tender
- Break the eggs separating the whites from the yolks.

- Preheat the oven to 350°F (th. 6)
- Incorporate the apples into the egg yolk-sugar mixture, then gently add the beaten whites, lifting the mixture at each turn.
- Butter a 22 cm cake pan and pour the preparation into it
- Even out the surface with a spatula and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until a knife blade comes out dry when pierced.
