Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

Cake:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces

  • ⅓ cup cream

  • 1 large egg, beaten

  • 4 large apples - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced

Streusel Topping:

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons flour

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter an 8-inch square baking dish.

  2. Make the cake: Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a mixing bowl. Cut in butter with 2 knives or a pastry blender until mixture is crumbly.

  3. Whisk cream and egg together in a small bowl; add to flour mixture and gently mix until a soft dough forms. Press into the prepared baking dish. Layer apples over top in neat rows, overlapping slightly.

  4. Make the streusel topping: Whisk brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle topping over apples.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until apples have softened and topping is golden brown, about 25 minutes.

Chicken & Vegetable Stir-Fry

Chicken & Vegetable Stir-Fry

This delightful dish, featuring chicken, a colorful vegetable combination and a tasty garlic-ginger soy sauce is so much better than take-out.

Seafood Sausage

Seafood Sausage

Seafood sausage is a great, underrated way to take less than thrilling seafood, like some sleepy sole, and previously frozen salmon, and make something that seems far more special. The flavor is lovely, and the texture is similar to a boudin blanc, or white hot dog, if you prefer. You can brown and serve these right after they're done boiling, but I like to make them ahead of time.

Sesame-Crusted Mahi Mahi with Soy, Shiso, and Ginger Butter Sauce

Mahi mahi fillets are encrusted with black and white sesame seeds and pan-seared in this Japanese-inspired recipe. The sauce is rich and creamy — flavored with soy, ginger, shallots, and shiso (a Japanese herb related to basil and mint).

Rabbit Casserole

Rabbit and smoked bacon casserole, flavored with chocolate, vegetables, and potatoes, then garnished with croutons and fresh parsley. The chocolate is optional, but adds a sophisticated twist to the flavors.
