Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by peeling and cutting the apples into large pieces. Sprinkle them with lemon juice to keep them fresh and flavorful.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until they are frothy and light.
  3. Add the sugar and vanilla extract to the eggs, then beat until the mixture is smooth.
  4. Melt the butter and mix it into the egg mixture. After that, stir in the yogurt until well combined.
  5. In another bowl, mix the flour and baking powder together until evenly mixed.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently to combine everything without overmixing.
Baking
  1. Grease a baking dish with a little butter or cooking spray, then pour about 2/3 of the batter into the dish, spreading it evenly.
  2. Arrange the apple pieces over the batter, making sure they are evenly distributed. Pour the remaining batter on top to cover the apples.
  3. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees C (360 degrees F) and bake for about 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Once baked, brush the warm pie with peach or apricot jam for a shiny, sweet finish. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Apple pie is best served warm, alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Sprinkle with cinnamon for extra flavor. Mix different apple types for added taste. Use store-bought crust to save time. Consider adding spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for enhanced apple flavor.
