This is a quick, little cake that my grandmother would make, to use up extra apples or pears

GRAM'S APPLE CAKE

1/2 c. sugar

1 egg, slightly beaten

1 TB. baking powder

1 TB. butter, softened

1/2 c. sour cream

1 c. flour

4-5 apples (peeled & sliced)

cinnamon, sugar& butter

Beat first 6 ingredients well.  Pour into greased square pan.  Top with sliced apples.  Dot with more butter.  Sprinkle with more cinnamon & sugar.  Bake at 350 for 30-50 min

Answer 8

Keep out enough for a pie or some apple turnovers.   You need some reward for all your hard work.  

Freeze the rest.  Just put in some resealable bags and put in the freezer.   Take out a bag when you want to make a pie.  

For me, if you are going to be making some apple butter or apple sauce, you really haven't peeled enough to make it worth your while.

Supreme Apple Butter --

"This is the ultimate apple butter recipe given to me by a former English teacher who loves to cook. It reminds me of fall and tastes heavenly. It's sweet, but not too sweet. It is just perfect. It tastes great on muffins, pancakes and vanilla ice cream."

1/2 cup apple cider

4 pounds Macintosh apples - peeled, cored and chopped

3/4 cup dark brown sugar

1 cup apple brandy

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves



DIRECTIONS
