 Categories: Fruits, Cakes
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
  1 1/4 c  Flour
    1/4 ts Salt
      1 ts Baking powder
    1/2 c  Butter
    1/4 c  Sugar
      1    Lemon; grated zest of
      1 lg Egg; slightly beaten
      2 lb Tart cooking apples
           - (6 to 7 md)
    1/2 c  Sugar
    1/2 ts Cinnamon
 
  Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 8" or a small round springform
  pan.
  
  Mix flour, salt, and baking powder. With your hands combine the
  butter with the flour until the mixture is crumbly. Add the sugar
  and lemon rind. Blend the ingredients well and set them aside. Peel
  the apples and grate them on the large holes of a grater, apples
  are easily handled if they are left whole after peeling. Mix them
  with the sugar and let them drain for 15 minutes in a colander. Mix
  in the egg with the crust and knead them well. The mixture will
  still be crumbly. With a fork, press 3/4ths of the dough evenly
  over the bottom and sides of the pan. Add the cinnamon to the
  apples in the colander. Spread the apples over the dough in the
  pan. With the remaining dough design a large apple on top of the
  fruit. Bake for 30 minutes, until the apples are tender. The recipe
  may be doubled for a larger cake. Best served cold.
