Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon water
2 Granny Smilth apples
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 Granny Smith apples
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon sugar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup molasses
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 cup plain dry bread crumbs

Steps:

  • To make caramel: Combine sugar and water in a small, heavy saucepan; set over medium heat. Cover, and cook until sugar has melted. Remove cover, and continue cooking, swirling pan occasionally, until sugar turns a deep amber. Carefully pour caramel into pudding mold; tip so caramel coats mold evenly. Set mold aside.
  • To make applesauce: Peel and core apples and cut into chunks. Place in a small saucepan along with water, sugar, and spices. Cook, covered, over low heat until apples fall apart, 10 to 12 minutes. Uncover, and cook 5 minutes more, stirring often. Set the applesauce aside.
  • To make apple topping: Peel and core apples and cut into 1-inch chunks. Melt butter in a small saute pan and add apples and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat until apples turn brown on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Place apples in the bottom of the caramel-lined mold, distributing evenly so they reach up the sides.
  • Choose a pot large enough to hold the pudding mold with a 2-inch space all around. Place a wire rack or a folded kitchen towel in the bottom of pot; fill with enough water to reach halfway up sides of mold. Cover pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer.
  • To make pudding: In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together butter and brown sugar. Add the eggs and molasses; mix well. Add the reserve applesauce, and mix well.
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; stir in breadcrumbs. Add to the applesauce mixture. Stir batter until just combined.
  • Fill pudding mold with batter; clamp on lid. Place mold in a pot of simmering water. Cover pot, and cook until a toothpick inserted into middle of pudding comes out clean, about 1 hour 40 minutes. Check water often, keeping it at a steady, low simmer. Transfer mold to a wire rack to cool, 15 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, invert the pudding onto a serving plate. If any of the apple chunks stick to the mold, remove them, and rearrange them on the top; slice.

CARAMEL APPLE PUDDING



Caramel Apple Pudding image

Whipped cream desserts are a light and lovely affair, especially at the end of a big meal like Thanksgiving. Some people love crunch, but the particular joy of this pudding lies in its voluptuous softness, as it needs to sit in the fridge overnight for the layers to cohere: vanilla cookies, caramel-fried apples and salted cinnamon whipped cream. It's an airy fall dream in dessert form.

Categories     parfaits and trifles, dessert

Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large crisp sweet-tart apples (1 pound), such as Fuji or Pink Lady, unpeeled and finely chopped (see Tip)
1/4 cup lemon juice (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1/4 packed cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
2 cups very cold heavy whipping cream
1 packed tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 (11-ounce) box vanilla wafers

Steps:

  • Make the caramel apples: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apples, lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the liquid is reduced but saucy with the consistency of chunky applesauce, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, make the whipped cream: In a large bowl, using a large whisk or an electric mixer, whisk the cream, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt until soft peaks form. (When you lift the whisk out of the bowl and turn it whisk-side up, a peak of cream should flop over onto itself.) Don't overbeat; you're looking for a soft-set whipped cream that drapes rather than plops.
  • Assemble the pudding: In a medium bowl or other serving vessel (preferably clear), arrange one-third of the vanilla wafers at the bottom, top with half of the caramel apples, then spread with half of the whipped cream. Repeat these layers once more and end with a final sprinkle of crushed vanilla wafers on top. (If you want crunch, save this final sprinkle for right before serving.) Cover and refrigerate until the cookies are soft, about 8 hours and up to 24 hours.

APPLE GINGERSNAP CRUMBLE



Apple Gingersnap Crumble image

Easier and homier than an apple pie, this gently spiced crumble feeds a crowd. If you don't want to make the bourbon cream, serve this with ice cream instead: Vanilla is classic, but ginger, green tea or salted caramel would also be terrific.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup/100 grams dark brown sugar, plus more to taste
1/3 cup/75 grams granulated sugar, plus more to taste
3 tablespoons/20 grams cornstarch
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
6 pounds/2 3/4 kilograms apples, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 11 large)
1 cup/80 grams fresh or frozen cranberries
2 tablespoons/30 milliliters lemon juice
2 tablespoons/29 grams cold unsalted butter, cubed
2 cups/250 grams all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups/250 grams dark brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
10 tablespoons/142 grams unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoon/20 milliliters molasses
2 cups/473 milliliters cold heavy cream
1 to 2 tablespoons/7 to 15 grams confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon/15 milliliters bourbon

Steps:

  • Make the filling: Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, stir together brown and granulated sugars, cornstarch, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Stir in apples and cranberries, sprinkle with lemon juice, and toss until combined. Taste mixture: An apple slice should be slightly sweeter than you'd like; the cranberries will seem like they need a little extra sugar. Add more sugar or lemon juice if needed.
  • Scrape apple mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish or a shallow gratin dish, mounding them slightly in the center. (This will even out as it bakes.) Dot top with cold butter cubes. Place baking dish on a baking sheet to catch any bubbling juices that may spill over.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, while you make the topping.
  • Make the topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, salt and lemon zest. Add butter and molasses, and use your fingers to crumble the mixture together to form 1/2-inch crumbles.
  • After 25 minutes of baking, stir the apples and mound slightly again. Gently press down on them with a spoon or spatula. Scatter crumbles evenly on top of apples.
  • Bake until topping is crisp and filling bubbles up around the sides of the dish, an additional 30 to 35 minutes. If the top starts to look too dark before the juices are bubbling, loosely cover top of crumble with foil. Transfer to a rack and let cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. If you made it ahead of time, you can also reheat the crumble at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Within an hour of serving, make the bourbon cream. Using an electric mixer or a whisk, beat together cream, confectioners' sugar and bourbon until soft peaks form. Chill if not serving immediately. Serve with apple crumble.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, use stale gingersnap cookies.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the gingersnaps in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin.
  • Be sure to use a heavy saucepan when making the caramel sauce, as it can easily burn.
  • Once the caramel sauce is made, let it cool slightly before adding it to the apples.
  • If you don't have a 9-inch springform pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Serve the caramel apple pudding warm or cold.

Conclusion:

This tempting caramel apple pudding with a gingersnap crust is the perfect fall dessert. It's easy to make, delicious, and sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
