1 egg
2 tablespoons cooking oil
2 cups cake flour, sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder

Beat the butter with the vanilla until combined.
Add the egg, cooking oil, sifted cake flour and baking powder to the butter mixture and form into a biscuit dough.
Divide the dough in 2 en press 1 part onto the bottom of a greased ovenproof pie dish.
Add the cooked apples on top of the dough in the pie dish.
Grate the rest of the dough evenly on top of the apples.
Bake the apple tart in a pre-heated oven at 180ºC for 30 minutes.
