Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Heat oven to 350° F.

Whisk together the flour, grits, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl; set aside.

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until foamy. Add the sugar, bourbon, and vanilla and whisk to combine. Whisk in the flour mixture and butter in alternate additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Fold in the apples. (The batter will be very apple-heavy.) Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
