Ingredients

About 1.5 kg apples
50 g sugar
100 g breadcrumbs
50 g sultanas
1/2 lemon
1 packet vanilla sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
4 tbsp rum
40 g pine nuts or grated/chopped nuts

Method

Peel and core the apples, cut into small slices and mix with sugar, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest and juice, rum, sultanas, nuts and breadcrumbs.
Place the dough on a baking tray greased with butter. Spread the apple filling in the middle of the thinly rolled dough (cut off 2 strips about 2 cm wide lengthways for decoration). Fold the dough over one side, brush with egg and fold over the next side, close well, brush everything with egg, lay the 2 strips over it in a plait and brush with egg.
Bake for about 1 hour at 190 degrees; it tastes best with vanilla sauce or vanilla ice cream and cream.
