Kooky for Kuchen! Apple edition

This is a family favorite recipe. Through the years, I've tweaked it and I think made it even betterer!



EASY APPLE KUCHEN



1/3 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup (or 4 ounce container) unsweetened applesauce

1 1/4 cups and 2 tablespoons flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon vinegar

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon*

2 cups apples, sliced (Granny Greens are perfect!)

1 egg

1 egg white

Melt butter, add applesauce, flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons of sugar and vinegar. Stir until dough is formed. Pat into 9" pie pan.

Mix remaining sugar (1/4 cup) and cinnamon with apples. Arrange on dough in pan. Beat eggs and pour over top.

Bake at 400 for 20 minutes, then at 375 for 10 minutes, until golden.


*I use Penzeys new Cinnamon - it's a blend of China, Vietnamese, Korintje and Ceylon cinnamon
