The apple pie is our all-Italian madeleine. It takes us back to childhood and comforts us as soon as the cold begins … chef Antonia Klugmann also has her very good apple pie. It is her family's recipe that she gave us in this special month in which the chef was the editor of our magazine for a month.

Beat the eggs with the sugar until they are foamy.
Sift the flour with the baking powder.
Gradually add the soft butter to the eggs, alternating with the flour and liquids (milk and rum), being careful not to dismantle the mixture.
Peel the apples and cut them into slices and add a third to the dough.
