1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a medium-sized baking pan with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and shredded coconut.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, and vanilla sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add the melted butter and milk.
4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, gently folding with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Toss them with the ground cinnamon.
6
Spread half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Arrange half of the apple slices evenly over the batter.
7
Pour the remaining batter over the apples, then decorate the top with the remaining apple slices.
8
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 35 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9
Let the cake cool completely before slicing and serving. You can dust it with powdered sugar or sprinkle with extra shredded coconut.
