Whoever knew my Bobby Mayer knew she made delicious homemade goodies! This was her staple every year for the kiddush on Sukkos.
4 cups Glicks Flour
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1 and 1/2 cups (3 sticks) margarine
1 teaspoon Haddar Baking Powder
3/4 cup seltzer
pinch of salt
Gefen Bread Crumbs, for sprinkling
4 pounds (about 8) Cortland apples, very thinly sliced
1 and 1/2 cups sugar
sprinkle of Gefen Cinnamon
juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon Gefen Vanilla Sugar
egg white, beaten, for brushing
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine all dough ingredients and mix well until a dough forms.
Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Divide dough into two. Roll out half the dough on a well-floured surface and place it on the bottom of a 10 x 16-inch pan, coming up the sides.
Sprinkle dough with bread crumbs.
In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, cinnamon, lemon, and vanilla sugar.
Add the filling on top of the dough and sprinkle more bread crumbs on top.
Roll out remaining dough and place it over the filling. Pinch it together to the bottom half. Brush the top with egg white. Bake for one hour.

This looks delicious – Can I substitute the margarine with Canola Oil?
Hi! If you use oil the dough will be softer and less flaky. It can still work, but the crust won’t have the same structure and richness that margarine provides.
Thank you!
Can I omit the breadcrumbs?
It may change the recipe a little bit but you can try!
