                    I found this recipe in our local daily newspaper. This self-saucing pudding with a cake-like top and lots of sauce underneath is delicious on its own or with whipped cream. Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                1 cup all-purpose flour  |  
                                                1/3 packed brown sugar  |  
                                                2 teaspoons baking powder  |  
                                                1 teaspoon cinnamon  |  
                                                1/4 teaspoon salt  |  
                                                1/2 cup currants (optional) or 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)  |  
                                                2 apples, cored and unpeeled  |  
                                                1/2 cup milk  |  
                                                2 tablespoons butter, melted  |  
                                                1 3/4 boiling water  |  
                                                1 cup packed brown sugar  |  
                                                1 tablespoon all-purpose flour  |  
                                                1 tablespoon butter, softenened  |  
                                                2 teaspoons vanilla  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. In bowl, combine 1 cup flour, 1/3 cup brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and currants or walnuts (if desired). 2. Thinly slice half of one apple; set aside. Chop remaining apples and add to flour mixture along with milk and melted butter; mix well. 3. Spread in buttered 9-inch square metal cake pan. 4. Arrange apple slices on top. 5. Sauce: In bowl, whisk together water, brown sugar, flour, butter and vanilla; gently pour over batter. 6. Bake in 350° oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until tester inserted in cake comes out clean. 7. Serve warm.                              |
