Time 2h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup butter (one-half stick)
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 large baking apples
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup shortening
1 large egg

1/2 cup milk
2 1/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour

heavy cream, whipped (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  • Melt the butter in a 10-inch heavy-bottomed skillet. Sprinkle the brown sugar uniformly over the bottom. Peel, core, and cut apples into one-half inch crosswise slices. Arrange them in the bottom of the skillet, overlapping the edges.
  • Combine the next 7 ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Beat in the egg. Stir in the molasses. Add the milk alternately with the flour. Beat in the hot water.
