The light coming through the foliage was a challenge - and fun to do! My favorite apple recipe: Apple Gateau Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 9" springform pan. Batter: 1/2 c butter, room temp.; 1 cup sugar; 2 eggs; 1 cup flour; 1 tsp baking powder. Beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time and beat until well blended. On low speed gradually add flour and baking powder. Beat just until flour is incorporated. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. Topping: 2 1/2 peeled, sliced apples; 1 tsp flour; 1/2 c brown sugar; 1 tsp cinnamon; 1/2 tsp lemon juice. Toss apple slices with flour and lemon juice. Spead evenly over batter. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle on top. Bake 45-50 minutes. Test with toothpick. Yummm!
