Julia's Collections

When my mother passed away 20 years ago, my sisters and I had the not-so-fun job of going through her treasures. No one spoke for her recipe collections, so I grabbed them. You see, my mom was a fantastic cook. It seemed a shame to me to have those recipes go unclaimed! Well, here we are, 20 years later; and those recipes have rested in their special place on my closet shelf waiting to be tried . . . .

Apples Galore! - Apple Dessert

My friend Chris gave me a big sack of apples, so I've been perusing through the collection for some good uses. I hesitate to make too many things knowing that I'll be the one eating up the leftovers (which I did tonight). Last night I made the Apple Dessert. It's really good served warm with ice cream. This recipe makes about four servings, and was attributed to Aunt Ruby (my grandfather's second wife).

APPLE DESSERT
1 egg well beaten
3/4 cup sugar
3 tbsp. flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. vanilla
Pinch of salt
1 cup grated apple (1 large apple)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Mix and pour into buttered Pyrex dish. Bake 30 min. at 350°F. Raisins or chopped dates may be added. Serve with whipped cream, just cream or any sauce. It raises nice, then falls as it browns.
