This is VERY easy to make and absolutely wonderful. It disappears quickly!! I got the recipe from my friend in Quebec. The original was brought over from France when the first settlers arrived in Nouvelle France or Quebec. Somewhere over time it became Grand-pere when someone substituted maple syrup for the brown sugar/water mix. Both versions are INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS! It is wonderful served warm with vanilla ice cream or cool whip. It also good served cold or room temperature. Ingredients:
3/4 cup brown sugar |
1 cup flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup milk |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 cups boiling water (or 3/4 cup - see note) |
3/4 cup brown sugar (or 2 cups maple syrup - see note) |
1 pinch nutmeg (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Mix the first six ingredients together in a deep baking dish (the deeper the better to prevent spills).
3. This is the batter .
4. Combine the boiling water,3/4 cup brown sugar and nutmeg.
5. Pour over the top of the batter .
6. Bake 30 minutes at 350.
7. **NOTE:To make Grand-pere instead, replace the 2 cups boiling water and 3/4 cup brown sugar with 3/4 cup boiling water and 2 cups maple syrup- omit the nutmeg.
8. Either version is equally delicious.
