First.  In a bowl, mix the milk with the beaten eggs. In short, this will be called from now on "liquid".

Second. In another bowl, mix the flour with the yeast and the remaining sugar. In short, this will be called from now on "powder".

Third. In the base of the greased cake pan, we will put one layer of "poder", then a layer of apple and after we will water it with "liquid". We will repeat the layers, in the same order, to finish.
