Directions
-
In a bowl, mix the egg, sugar, and lemon extract. Gradually add the oil and flour. Stir in the pinch of salt and baking powder. Mix until you get a smooth dough.

Place the dough evenly into a 24 cm pie mold and create designs using a slotted spoon for texture.

In a pan, combine the egg, vanillin, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon zest. Slowly add the milk, and cook on low heat, stirring constantly until you achieve a creamy consistency.

Peel and slice the apples. Pour the cream filling evenly over the dough in the mold, then arrange the sliced apples on top. Sprinkle with almonds for added crunch.
