Steps
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together ¾ cup of all-purpose flour, ⅔ cup of white granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon of salt until evenly combined and free of lumps.
- Crack 5 large eggs into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Pour in 1 cup of whole milk, 1 cup of heavy cream, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (170°C) and prepare a 7.5-inch round cake pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper.
- Once chilled, pour the batter into the prepared pan and arrange 2 medium apples, thinly sliced, on top.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, checking for doneness with a skewer.
- Let the pie cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes before lifting it out using the parchment overhang.
