Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • BOTTOM LAYER
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (sifted)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter (she had SHORTENING here but I know she only used butter or lard)
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 3 tablespoons cream
  • SECOND LAYER
  • 8 apples, peeled cored and sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • THIRD LAYER
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (or sweet cream)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups flaked coconut
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Sift flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt together.

  • Step 2: Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.

  • Step 3: Add 3 tablespoons water and 3 tablespoons cream together until blended. Turn onto a floured board. Roll out to fit a 15x10 inch pan; I would use a 9x13 pan. This is a very old recipe and they used different pans back then.

  • Step 4: Arrange 8 apples (peeled, cored, and sliced,) on dough sprinkled with 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Dot with 2 tablespoons butter.

  • Step 5: Bake 25 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • Step 6: Blend together 1 egg slightly beaten, 1/2 cup cream (sweet or sour), 1/2 cup sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt and 2 cups coconut, flaked. Spoon this mixture over apples.

  • Step 7: Bake 20 minutes more 375 degrees Fahrenheit. No temperature was given so I am guessing.
