Ingredients

• 6 cups (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced) Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
• 0.25 cups Milk
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish or an equivalently sized baking pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the peeled, cored, and thinly sliced apples. Spread them evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 4

In another smaller bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly beaten. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until a thick batter forms, ensuring there are no lumps.

Step 6

Carefully spread the batter over the apples in the baking dish, using a spatula to evenly distribute it.

Step 7

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the pudding from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving warm.

Step 9

Optionally, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence.
