Method
01.
Chop the nuts and toast them dry in a pan. Peel the apples, core them and cut them into slices.
02.
Separate the egg whites from the yolks. In a tall bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Mix the flour with the baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon. In a larger bowl, beat the yolks with the sugar until frothy, gradually pour in the oil and gently fold in the whipped egg whites and the flour mixture with cinnamon. Stir in one direction so the egg whites do not collapse. Finally, very gently fold in the apples and nuts.
03.
Pour the batter into a cake tin greased with vegetable fat and dusted with flour. Place in an oven preheated to 180 °C and bake for about 40 minutes.
