Grate the apples and gently squeeze out the excess juice.
Toast the flour in butter for 8 minutes, until it turns a light hazelnut color.
Add the grated apple to the flour and turn for 5 minutes.
Add the sugar gradually and bring the halva together, taking care not to burn the bottom of the pot.
Shape the halva with a spoon and let it rest with cinnamon for 10 minutes.
On the serving plate, check that no moisture from the grated apple remains.
💡 Tip: Finely grating the apples gives the halva a moist texture without leaving separate pieces.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the halva warm as a dessert, sprinkled with cinnamon.
