- At this time, beat the eggs and 150 g of sugar with a mixer until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add 50 g of warm butter to the bowl and beat well with a mixer again. I pour in 300 g of sour cream and now mix the resulting mass with a silicone spatula.
- Slowly mix 140 g of flour and baking powder into the future dough.
- I cut the apples into thin slices; the peel does not need to be removed.
- Grease the multicooker bowl with the remaining butter and spread half the dough. I put 2/3 of the chopped apples on top.

Features of cooking in a multicooker: Redmont, Polaris, Panasonic
If a housewife uses a Redmont multicooker for baking, then she can always rely on the time set automatically in the modes. Especially if it concerns the “4502” model. In devices from other brands, it is better to carefully check readiness; additional baking time may be required.
Some models from Panasonic and Polaris do not have a special “Baking” mode. But even this will not stop the housewife from preparing a delicious apple pie. This program is replaced by the “Steam” or “Soup” options. The main thing is not to forget to regulate the cooking time and pay attention to the temperature.
