Dear Readers,
It’s September and apples are arriving daily at the Farmers’ Market. They look so delicious – there are so many varieties to choose from. Here’s an apple dessert that I’ve been preparing since I was a newlywed and that’s 39 years ago! It’s easy and tastes fantastic warmed up and sitting beside a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Virginia Apple Pudding
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup sifted flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 cups peeled, raw apple slices
Melt butter in an 8 or 9 inch square casserole pan. Sift dry ingredients together and add milk to make a batter. Pour over melted butter in casserole. Pile apple slices in center of batter. Bake in a 375 degree oven until batter covers fruit and crust browns – 30 to 40 minutes. Serve warm, plain or with vanilla ice cream. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
Enjoy and remember: an apple a day keeps the doctor away! But I’m not sure if that counts for desserts!!! Oh well.
Keep smilin’!
