In a bowl, mix apples with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Stir in semolina or breadcrumbs to absorb extra moisture.
Step 3: Assemble the Cake
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Roll out one portion of dough and place it in the bottom of the baking dish. Poke holes with a fork.
Spread the apple filling evenly over the dough.
Roll out the second portion of dough and place it over the apples. Seal the edges and poke holes with a fork.
Brush the top with beaten egg yolk.
Step 4: Bake and Serve
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.
Let cool completely, then dust with powdered sugar before slicing.
Tips & Variations
✔ More crunch? Add chopped walnuts or raisins to the apple filling. ✔ Sweeter? Drizzle with honey or add a caramel glaze. ✔ Thicker crust? Use a smaller baking dish for a more cake-like texture.
