This made a wonderful dessert served with vanilla ice cream. I had guests for dinner and popped these in when I took out my main course - by the time they were ready, everyone's mouth was watering!

A simple and refreshing dessert. I used gala apples, my favorites, and enjoyed the light maple flavor they took on in the baking. As a variation I used a combination of golden raisins and cranberries in lieu of currants. The cranberries worked particularly well. Forgot to pare back a bit of the skin a mistake. We really enjoyed these. Thanks Dancer!
