It’s the time of year when apples are ripe, crisp and plentiful. Many times I share Texas recipes here, but since I am a proud Canadian, and spend 1/2 my time each year here in the North Country I think our homegrown recipes deserve an equal chance. This one will warm you up on these cool Winter days and nights.

Ingredients

Serves 6

4 cups peeled and sliced apples
2/3 c. maple syrup
1/3 c. raisins
1 c. flour
¼ c. sugar
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
¼ tsp. salt
¼ c. butter, melted
½ c. buttermilk
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions

Bring apples and maple syrup to boil in a saucepan; simmer until softened (about 3 minutes). Stir in raisins. Pour into greased 8” square baking pan.

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.

In another bowl whisk together milk, melted butter, egg and vanilla. Stir into the dry ingredients mixture just until combined.

Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto apples in the baking pan.

Bake at 350° F for 30 minutes.
