Place your sliced apples in a microwave safe shallow bowl. Microwave them in 1 minute intervals until softened and pliable about 3 minutes. Stir the apples in between intervals. Once pliable, toss with lemon juice and spiced rum. Then, set aside until cool, about 10 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 325 degree F and butter a 9 inch springform pan and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone mat. *don’t skip on this! the batter is fairly thin and there will be some leakage.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour and 1 cup sugar, baking powder and salt.
Then, in a large bowl mix together the whole egg, milk, oil and vanilla extract/paste. While mixing gradually add in the dry ingredients until just moistened. Remove 1 cup of batter and reserve.
To the remaining batter whisk in the 2 egg yolks. Then, fold in the cooled apple sliced until they are all coated with batter. Poor the apple mixture into your prepared pan. Gently press the apples down to make an even layer.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour to the reserved batter and whisk until smooth. Spoon on the top of the apple mixture and spread evenly to the edges of the pan. Then, sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar evenly over top.
