Étapes de réalisation
1Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Let it reach the correct temperature while you prepare the batter, ensuring even baking.
2In a large bowl, cream together the egg yolks and 200g of sugar until light and fluffy. This step incorporates air into the batter, leading to a light and airy cake.
3Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together. This removes any lumps and ensures an even distribution of the dry ingredients, contributing to a smooth and consistent texture.
4Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg yolk mixture, gently folding them in until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can toughen the cake.
5In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter until smooth and light. This will create air pockets, resulting in a moist and flavorful cake.
6Add the rum and orange blossom water to the batter, followed by the creamed butter. Fold in gently until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing, as this can toughen the cake.
7Pour the batter into a greased and floured Bundt pan. This ensures that the cake releases cleanly from the pan after baking.
8Peel, halve, and core the apples. Then, slice them thinly and evenly. The uniform size ensures consistent baking.
9Arrange the apple slices in a decorative, overlapping pattern over the batter. The rosace arrangement will enhance the visual appeal of the cake.
10Brush the apple slices with the remaining melted butter mixed with 20g of sugar. This will create a glossy finish and caramelize the apples during baking.
11Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time can vary depending on the oven, so keep an eye on the cake.
12Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. This allows the cake to set and ensures even cooling.
13Once the cake is completely cool, dust it with powdered sugar or glaze it with your favorite glaze. The final touch of sweetness adds an extra layer of delight.
