Prepare the Apples:
Wash, peel, and grate the apples using a large-hole grater. Set aside.

Mix the Dry Ingredients:
Using a 400 ml glass, measure:
-
1 glass semolina
-
1 glass flour
-
½ glass sugar
Combine these in a large bowl and mix well with a spoon. Then divide the mixture into 3 equal parts (you can re-use the glass to portion it).

Prepare the Baking Tin:
Use a round baking tin, approximately 25 cm in diameter. Grease it well with a little butter.

Assemble the Cake:

Start with a layer of the dry mixture.

Add a third of the grated apples evenly on top.

Sprinkle some chopped walnuts, cinnamon (if using), and a few small bits of butter.

The final layer should be grated apples.
