Apple Pie (no Pie Crust)

2. Use a fine brush to peel the lemon first, then squeeze the juice, and set aside.

In 10 minutes, it was all gone.
Tips:
The only thing to note:
When adding the apple slices to the batter, be sure to pause twice and drain the water; don't bring the lemon juice into the batter, otherwise it will smash.
