'Sandy' Cake With Apple Compote - {Torta Sabiosa}

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 cup	99g / 3.5oz	Butter
1 cup	198g / 7oz	Sugar
6		Eggs - separated
1/4 cup	59ml	Potato starch
1/2 cup	31g / 1.1oz	Flour
1		Active dry yeast
1 teaspoon	5ml	Salt
2 tablespoons	30ml	Sweet butter
4		Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon	15ml	Grated fresh ginger
1/2 cup	80g / 2.8oz	Brown sugar

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

In a mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar and cream them together. Once they are well mixed and fluffy, incorporate the egg yolks, one at a time, and continue to beat.

In a separate bowl, combine the potato starch, flour, yeast, and salt and mix well. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring just enough to blend.

In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites and fold them into the mixture. Turn the batter out into a greased 9-inch round cake pan and bake for 30 minutes.

While the cake bakes, heat the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the apples, ginger, and sugar and cook until very soft, about 20 minutes. Set aside in a warm place.

When the cake comes out of the oven allow it to rest 5 minutes, then invert it onto a plate. Spoon the apple compote over and serve with whipped cream on the side.
