Apple Pudding
unsure of the origin of this one:
½ cup melted butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 cup milk
2 cups peeled apple, chopped (personal favorite for this is Granny Smith)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a bowl, combine sugars, flour, and baking powder, then add milk and whisk until smooth. Pour into the casserole dish (with the melted butter) without mixing.
In a small saucepan, heat apples with cinnamon and nutmeg until slightly softened.
Pour apples into the center of the batter, again without mixing.
Bake in the preheated oven 30 - 40 minutes, or until golden.
Serve warm - drizzle the plate or bowl with with caramel sauce, then add a scoop of the pudding and top with whipped cream or ice cream.
* In a deep casserole dish, the batter rises to cover the apples.
