APPLE FLAN WITH OLIVE OIL

This apple flan is made with new season apples and a small amount of flour and olive oil to bind it all together. This is a healthy tart that is utterly delicious too.

Serves:

Ingredients

1 kg apples (about 7 small apples)

1/2 cup flour

1 tsp cinnamon

20ml Azzuro Groves’ Tuscan Blend Olive Oil

50g brown sugar

2 eggs

100ml milk

Method

Preheat oven to 200c

Peel the apples and slice thinly

Whip the eggs with the sugar until creamy. Add the sifted flour, cinnamon, olive oil and the milk and continue whipping until well combined. Add the apples and mix together thoroughly

Lay a sheet of baking paper on the bottom of a 20cm round baking tin to make it easier to remove the cake and grease and flour it

Put the apple mixture in the tin and level it with the back of a spoon

Bake for 30 minutes and then leave it in the switched off oven for 10 minutes with the door ajar

Let the cake cool down completely before removing it from the tin, then sprinkle with powdered sugar
