Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F) and lightly grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round springform pan with butter or nonstick spray.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the 3 apples. Set them aside for later use.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and creamy using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and smooth it out with a spatula.
Arrange the apple slices on top of the batter in a circular pattern, slightly overlapping them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the torte is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the torte from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Optionally, sprinkle powdered sugar over the top before serving.
