Critical Success Points

  • Caramelizing the apples until they are soft and lightly browned.
  • Not over‑mixing the batter after adding the flour.
  • Arranging the apple slices in a neat rose pattern.
  • Checking cake doneness with a knife; it should come out clean but moist.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot saucepan and caramelized apples with care to avoid burns.
  • Use oven mitts when removing the pan from the oven.
  • Do not leave the hot oven unattended during the final 10 minutes of baking.
