This is the printable recipe (link at the bottom), and my best interpretation of what the instructions may have been:<\/p>\n
\n
Apples in a Dressing Gown<\/h3>\n
Pastry:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- 1 2\/3 cup flour<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 tsp baking powder<\/li>\n
- 1\/3 cup sugar<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 egg (beat it, so it\u2019s evenly dispersed)<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup shortening<\/li>\n
- A little cold water (if necessary)<\/li>\n
- Powdered sugar or Vanilla Sugar (for dusting)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Apples:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- 4 Apples, peeled & cored<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Filling:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- 3 Tbsp sugar<\/li>\n
- 2 tsp cinnamon<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 tsp butter (optional)<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup raisins<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- Mix egg, shortening & sugar until well combined.<\/li>\n
- Add flour & baking powder and mix until dough forms<\/li>\n
- Knead dough & let sit in refrigerator for approximately 20 minutes.<\/li>\n
- Preheat oven to 350<\/li>\n
- While that is sitting, peel & core the apples.<\/li>\n
- To prepare the filling, mix sugar & cinnamon and add 1\/2 tsp butter to help things stick.<\/li>\n
- mix in the raisins.<\/li>\n
- On a floured surface, roll out dough and cut into 5-6\u201d squares.<\/li>\n
- Place Apple on top of dough square & stuff with filling.<\/li>\n
- Lift corners of dough to the top of the apple, covering the entire apple. Depending on the stiffness of your dough, you may be able to form peaks, or simply \u201cwrap\u201d the apple.<\/li>\n
- Place on greased cooking sheet or baking pan, dust with 2nd half of egg (if desired) and cook for 30-45 minutes, depending on when your apples are soft.<\/li>\n
- Dust with powdered sugar or Vanilla Sugar.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Note:<\/strong> Some people make a cream sauce for on top.\u00a0 <\/span>Other filling options are marzipan, nuts, crushed walnuts, rum, & oats.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
