  4. Peel and core the apples. Cut them into wedges. Place the apple wedges directly on the dough, overlapping them slightly.

  5. Place 2 eggs, sugar, almond powder, and sour cream in in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the Mixer Whisk. Beat on speed 4 for 1 minute. Add calvados and mix for 30 seconds on speed 4. Pour the filling over the apples.
