MILOPITA (GREEK APPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE)
I use Granny Smith apples in this milopita recipe, but if you have a favorite apple you prefer for baking, use it.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line an 11-inch round baking pan with parchment paper.
- Combine sliced apples, 1/2 cup white sugar, butter, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Mix together gently, being careful not to break apple slices. Pour sugary juice from the apple mixture into the prepared baking pan. Arrange sliced apples on top in a circle. Sprinkle raisins on top of apples and pour any remaining juice over all.
- Combine olive oil and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Add egg yolks, flour, grated apples, baking powder, and remaining white sugar. Stir well to combine. Beat egg whites to a light froth in a separate bowl and stir into the olive oil mixture carefully. Pour over the apples in the baking pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cover cake with foil if the top browns before the cake is done baking.
- Remove cake from oven and allow to cool, about 30 minutes. Invert cake onto a serving plate.

[email protected]I didn't have any cinnamon on hand, so I used a mixture of nutmeg and allspice instead. The Milopita still had a warm, autumnal flavor.

[email protected]I made this Milopita in a 9x13 inch pan instead of a 10-inch pan. The cake was a bit thinner, but it still cooked evenly and tasted great.

[email protected]I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from the topping. The Milopita was still delicious without them.

[email protected]I added a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of my Milopita slice and it was heavenly! The cold, creamy ice cream perfectly complemented the warm, gooey cake.

[email protected]I substituted Granny Smith apples for the Gala apples and the Milopita still turned out great! The tartness of the Granny Smiths added a nice contrast to the sweetness of the cake and filling.
