little lemon peel (equivalent of 1/2 lemon or less)
1 cup whtie granulated sugar
1 teaspoon of real vanilla extract)
4 eggs
2 1/4 cup flour
2 pounds apples, (I like to use roman or red delicious.
...Sour types are also good.) Peeled, cored, and sliced
2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Beat in mixer butter with the lemon peel until creamy. Add the
1 cup sugar, vanilla sugar, and eggs one at a time. Beat until
fluffy. Now add the flour, a little at a time, to keep the volume.
Cover a cookie sheet or baking pan with parchment paper (can
be found in houseware stores). Spread dough onto it about 1/2
to 3/4 inch think. Lay apple pieces on top. Do not to push into
the dough, as they will sink in the baking process. Mix the 2
tablespoons sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle on top.
