I'm not a fan of any of the desserts my family has always made for Passover, but this one I like. I've found that it doesn't make enough batter to really cover all of the apples on the top layer, but it still works for me. Maybe a more creative cook could find a way to adjust the ingredients for a bit more batter.
Ingredients:
1 cup matzo cake meal
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 egg whites, divided
1/2 cup oil
1/4 cup orange juice
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 cups apples, peeled and thinly sliced (3-4 apples)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Stir the cake meal and salt together and set aside.
3. Beat 3 egg whites until stiff and set aside.
4. Beat the remaining 2 egg whites, oil, orange juice and 3/4 cup sugar together with a mixer for 5 minutes.
5. Stir in the cake meal until thoroughly blended.
6. Fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites.
7. Spoon half of the batter into a greased 8 or 9 inch square pan.
8. Arrange the apples over the batter.
9. Mix the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle over the apples.
10. Spoon the rest of the batter over the apples.
11. Bake for 35-40 minutes.
