Ingredients:
5 eggs, separated
5 Golden Delicious apples, peeled and grated
2 cups of sugar
3 cups of flour
1 1/2 cups of olive oil
1 tablespoon of baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 390F (200C).
2. 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.
3. Bake in a lightly oiled 11 1/2-inch round (or equivalent) pan at 390F (200C) for 45 minutes or until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Note: If the top of the cake browns too quickly, cover with foil until the cake is done.
