Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400° F. You will need a square cake pan, 8 x 8 or 9 x 9 will do.
• Prepare soft dough by mixing together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ½ c. skim milk in a small bowl. The dough will be quite soft, but use the least amount of flour necessary during the next step.
• Take half of the dough and roll it out on a surface dusted with flour till it is the size of the bottom of a square cake pan.
• Carefully transfer the rolled out dough to the cake pan and use your fingers to finish forming it to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Core, peel, and slice apples into water mixed with a little lemon juice to prevent browning. I like to do this after I make the dough so the apples are not sitting in the water too long.
• Whisk together the 2 eggs and ¾ c. skim milk.
• Drain apples and distribute them evenly over the dough in the pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon and the ¾ c. sugar.
• Roll out remaining dough large enough to mostly cover the apples in the pan.
• Pour the egg and milk mixture on the apples.
• Carefully place the rolled out dough on top of the apples and eggs. You do not need to seal it to the edge.
• Bake at 400° F till apples are soft and custard is set, about 45 minutes.
