Divide the dough into 2 parts and roll each out on a floured surface to the size of the baking mold. Place one part into the mold. Spread the entire apple filling evenly over the dough and cover it with the second part of the dough.

Place into the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes until golden brown. Let the finished cake cool in the mold. Before serving, generously sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar.

Tip: For an especially delicate flavor, you can finish the sauce with a drop of lemon juice. Homemade spaetzle or wide noodles, which perfectly soak up the creamy sauce, are an excellent side dish.
