A very wonderful apple dessert, with or without the grated cheese, which is optional..if not using the cheese, this is yummy with icecream. If you prefer a thicker apple filling add in a couple tablespoons flour. Ingredients:
4 cooking apples, peeled, cored and thickly sliced (granny smith or spartans are good, about 2 pds) |
1 1/4 cups brown sugar, packed |
1 tablespoon cinnamon |
3/4 cup melted butter |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 cup flour |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
2 tablespoons brown sugar (or more to suit taste) |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 cup cold cubed butter |
2 eggs |
1/2 cup half-and-half cream or 1/2 cup milk |
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (optional) |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350 degrees.
2. Butter a 7 x 11-inch baking pan.
3. In a bowl, toss the sliced apples with the brown sugar, cinnamon, melted butter and lemon juice; set aside.
4. For the batter, combine the flours, brown sugar and baking powder in a food processor.
5. Add the cold butter, and pulse until mixture resembles oatmeal.
6. Whisk the eggs with the milk and, with the motor running, add to the flour mixture (just until combined).
7. Drop half of the batter by spoonfuls, into the prepared baking dish.
8. Spoon in the apple mixture.
9. Drop dollups of the remaining mixture over the apples.
