Ingredients:

Directions:
Butter a 10-inch bundt pan, two 9-inch round cake pans, or one 9X13-inch sheet pan. Sprinkle the bottom and sides with the sesame seeds.

Preheat the oven to 350°.

Beat the oil and sugar until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, leavenings, and spices. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture along with the apple juice and vanilla, beating with a wooden spoon until the batter is smooth. Fold in the chopped apples and nuts.

Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 30 to 45 minutes, depending upon the size of the pan, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Sprinkle the top with sifted powdered sugar when the cake is cool.

Directions:
Core apples and cut a score around the sides about 1/3 down from the top.

Fill score with raisins or currants, and top with brown sugar, pressing the sugar lightly toward the center of the fruit.

Place apples in the bottom of the crock pot, and pour port over them, seeing that some goes into each apple center.

Cover and cook at Low for 3 to 4 hours, or until apples are soft.

Serve with excess port sauce poured over apples.

Note: These apples are excellent hot or cold, and especially good served with rich vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Directions:
For crust: Sift flour with salt. Using a pastry blender, add half the shortening to the flour mixture and cut in until crumbly. Add remaining shortening, cutting in until mixture looks like small peas. Add 1 tablespoon ice water to flour mixture and mix. Repeat with additional water until all flour is thoroughly moistened. Form into a ball. Divide ball in half. Wrap each half in wax paper and chill in refrigerator.

When chilled, roll out bottom crust and line pie plate with it.

For filling: Preheat oven to 400℉. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons flour. Spread this mixture on bottom crust to absorb liquid. Combine remaining sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg in a bowl and mix well. Pour sugar mixture over sliced apples and mix well. Pour apples into pie crust. Dot with small chunks of butter.

Roll out top crust and place on top of apples. Crimp edges and make 5 (1 ½-inch long) slits on top of pie crust. Brush top crust lightly with milk. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake for 5 minutes. Then reduce heat to 350℉ and bake for 1 hour.

(Serves
It’s best to chill all crust ingredients, including bowl, fork, flour and shortening.

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil an 11 x 7-inch baking dish.

In a small pot, scald the milk, brining it almost but not quite to a boil. In another small pot, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. Slowly add the scalded milk, whisking continuously until the sauce starts to thicken. Add the nutmeg, salt, and cloves and stir for about a minute, until thick. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Spread the apples and onions evenly in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle on the grated cheese and pour the sauce over the top. Scatter on the walnuts and bread crumbs.

Bake uncovered for 45 minutes, until the top is golden and crisp.

I liked this dish but if I make it again I would use something with more milk fat than non-fat milk. I also would skip the bread crumbs. I only put 1/2 a cup on the dish and that was still too much. i might try mixing in some potatoes in with the apples and onions.
