  3. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add sugar, and beat with an electric mixer until they become lighter and triple in volume.

  4. Mix in the olive oil, polenta, cornmeal, ground walnuts, baking powder, and cinnamon into the beaten eggs, and finally add the diced apples.

  5. Pour the mixture into the cake pan, smooth the top, decorate with apple slices, and sprinkle with brown sugar.

  6. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve.
