directions

  • Preheat an oven to 400°F Grease a 9-inch glass pie dish with butter.
  • Prepare the apple.
  • Peel the apple, then cut it into quarters and core. Using a small knife, cut the apple quarters into small chunks.
  • Make the apple filling.
  • In a small bowl, using a fork, stir together 2 tablespoons of the sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Add the apple chunks and toss with the fork until the pieces are evenly coated with the cinnamon-sugar.
  • Pour the apple chunks into the prepared dish, spreading them out evenly with the fork. Set aside.
  • Make the batter
  • In a blender, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, the eggs, milk, flour and vanilla.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Greatest of all, I am a Mom! The true miracle in my life so far is my beautiful daughter, Emily Rose. She is the joy of my life. My husband and I were blessed after nine years of marriage to finally be able to have her. I am also an artist. I love to paint with acrylics and I also use colored pencils. Perfectionist is my middle name. I am passionate about cooking. I love to cook for my daughter (who at almost three years old is not the easiest to please at the moment) and my husband, Tim. I have been more excited about cooking since discovering Recipezaar. It makes cooking and shopping for the ingredients easier. I just started adding some of my favorite recipes to the site and can't wait to see if anyone tries them. Keeping my fingers crossed that I get "good" reviews. <br /><br /><img alt="" src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" /> <br /><br /><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" /></p>
