One of my father's favorite Fall desserts. His mother used to make it in the oven, but my mother adapted it to the crock pot to make it simpler. A great way to use the abundance of apples right now! Something different, something yummy and comforting. Ingredients:
4 cups apples, peeled and sliced |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons dry tapioca |
1 lemon, juice of |
1 cup boiling water (must be boiling) |
1/2 cup raisins (optional) |
Directions:
1. In medium bowl, toss apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, salt and tapioca until evenly coated.
2. Place apples in crock pot.
3. Pour lemon juice over top.
4. Pour in boiling water.
5. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours.
6. Add raisins (if using) before serving, but don't cook with everything else (Not sure why, but my mother never does).
7. Serve warm.
