 Greek Apple Coffee Cake Photo © 2006 N. Gaifyllia, licensed to About.com, Inc. At a Glance Prep Time : 20min Cook Time : 45min Course : Cakes Type of Prep : Bake Cuisine : Greek Milopita: Apple Coffee CakeIn Greek: μηλόπιτα, pronounced mee-LOH-pee-tah I use Golden Delicious apples in this recipe, but if you have a favorite apple you prefer for baking, use it. The recipe is easy to make, and uses olive oil, making it a great choice for those who don't eat dairy products. INGREDIENTS:
PREPARATION:Preheat oven to 390F (200C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil and cinnamon. Add egg yolks, flour, baking powder, sugar, and grated apples. Stir well to combine. Beat the egg whites to a light froth and stir into the mixture carefully. Bake in a lightly oiled in an 11 1/2-inch round (or equivalent) pan at 390F (200C) for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Note: If the top of the cake browns too quickly, cover with foil until the cake is done. Carrot Cake: Substitute 1 1/2 cups of finely grated carrots for the apples to make a delicious Greek version of carrot cake. User Reviews
