BAVARIAN APPLE TORTE

I entered this dessert at my church's Harvest Fest Pie Bakeoff, and the judges created a category right there and then just for this torte so they could give it a blue ribbon! My friend, Nancy, shared this recipe with me. For such an elegant presentation, it's very easy to make. In this version, you don't even need to mix the apples before putting them on the filling.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 Stick)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup flour
8 ounces cream cheese (1 Package)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 egg
2 -3 apples, any kind
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon grated fresh nutmeg
1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease 9-inch pie pan with Crisco.
  • CRUST: Mix together Butter, 1/3 Cup Sugar, 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract, 1 Cup Flour. Press into pie pan evenly across bottom and up the sides.
  • FILLING: Mix until creamy: 8 ounces Cream Cheese, 1/3 Cup Sugar, 1 Teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract, 1/4 teaspoon Pure Almond Extract, 1 Egg. Pour into the crust.
  • APPLE LAYER: Peel, core and thinly slice Apples. Arrange over cream cheese mixture.

  • TOPPING: 1/2 Cup Sliced Toasted Almonds.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
  • Cool and refrigerate.
  • Hint #1: I purchase almonds already sliced, and simply toast them in a non-stick skillet at medium-high heat until fragrant and just starting to turn golden, just 2 or 3 minutes.
  • Hint #2; Have all ingredients at room temperature, and make the recipe in the order as written, saving the apple-peeling until just before you sprinkle on the almonds.
  • Hint #3: Use real vanilla extract, not vanilla flavor. It makes a big difference in the quality of flavor.
