Ingredients
-
Crust or Cake
1/2 cup butter
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups flour
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
Apple Filling
4 -5 large apples, peeled and sliced
Topping
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 tablespoons flour
2 1/2 teaspoons butter, softened
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cake/Crust: Mix dry ingredients and cut in butter as for a pie crust (mixture should be \"sandy\" with small pea-sized lumps of butter).
Add egg and milk and mix well.
Pat into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 11 1/2 X 7 1/2 baking dish (I use large ceramic quiche pan).
Filling: Arrange apple slices in a spiral around pan (I start outside and work in, eventually cutting pieces to fit).
Topping: Mix topping ingredients and spread over apples. Bake for about 40 minutes or until apples are tender.
Toward the end of the baking time you can also run it under a broiler to nicely brown the edges of the apples for the extra \"wow\" factor.
