A recipe one of my students did as an assignment. I promised her I would make it when I got home, it was so fast and easy and had really ordinary things in it. It is a nice recipe that makes a kind of apple coffee cake. Would be great for breakfast. She suggests serving it with ice cream or creme anglaise. I like it right out of the pan. Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups flour |
3/4 cup creme fraiche (maybe even heavy cream or milk) or 3/4 cup sour cream (maybe even heavy cream or milk) or 3/4 cup yogurt (maybe even heavy cream or milk) |
3 eggs |
2/3 cup sugar, more if you use sour cream |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
2 apples, diced |
2 teaspoons cinnamon, separated |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Mix the dry ingredients, reserve 1 tsp cinnamon.
2. Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
3. Combine.
4. Spray or butter and flour a large glass pie dish.
5. Pour in batter. Add diced apples on top. I didn't peel them, but I was being lazy. Celine suggested making pretty patterns on the top of the batter with the apples. I just tossed them on, then pushed them down slightly.
6. Sprinkle with the reserved tsp of cinnamon.
7. Bake at 375° in a preheated oven for about 35 minutes or until done.
8. Eat warm or cold.
