I mentioned the other day that I had to use up apples. Two of
them were bad but the other 6-7 were still fine. So yesterday I
cored and sliced them - using that nifty kitchen gadget that
cores and slices into 8 parts.

Anyway, I didn't want to waste that. This morning, I started
peeling all those 40 or so slices. I got about halfway then said,
"screw this peeling." so the rest I just left peeled. sorry.

The apple slices, I seasoned like I would for an apple pie.
Cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, bit of cloves. Mixed all that in to sit
for awhile as I went on to make the batter for this mess.

I used Terry Coombs recipe for a quick dessert thing. As I had
quite a few apple slices, I doubled his batter recipe. (See his
recipe below). This made a very full dish of apple pie something
or whatever. hehh

I just now took it out of the oven and it looks to die for
delicious. Haven't tasted it yet but something that looks this
good just HAS to be good, I'm thinking.

First piece later today will be in honor of Ophy's darn
birthday!

Here's a pic of it right out of the oven:
Well nevermind. Seems that my old camera has officially died
now.
The dessert does look very good though.

Terry Coombs recipe:
--------------------
A cup of sugar , a cup of milk , a cup of flour , 1 1/2 tsp
baking
powder and 1/4 tsp salt makes the batter. Melt a stick of butter
in a
baking dish (in the oven) , pour the batter into the melted
butter and
dump a quart of drained fruit into the center . Bake for one hour
at
350° . Peaches get a sprinkle of ground cloves . We usually use
the
fruit juice and powdered milk for the milk in the batter . Any
canned
fruit will do , fresh fruits usually need some sweetening -
blackberries
benefit from a dash of almond extract .
