Do you ever remember your grandmother making pie squares? If you do, this recipe is sure to take you back in time. If not, start a new (old) tradition at your house. Make this deep dish apple pie in a 13 x 9-inch cake pan and serve pie squares. This is an old family recipe handed down through the generations. Try it; you'll like it. Pastry, Granny Smith apples, sugar, cinnamon; is your mouth watering yet? Use your favorite pastry recipe or try the Hot Water Pie Crust recipe below.


GRANDMA'S DEEP DISH APPLE PIE IN A CAKE PAN


An old family handed down recipe.


Preheat oven to 425 degrees.


Pastry for 10-inch two crust pie. See the hot water pie crust recipe below or use your favorite recipe.


Line a 13 x 9-inch baking pan with pie crust dough trimming to 1/2-inch overhang. Set aside.


FILLING:


1 1/4 cups sugar
6 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
12 cups thinly sliced, peeled Granny Smith apples
1/2 stick butter


Topping:


1 tbsp milk
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon


To prepare filling: Combine sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl.

Put apples in a large bowl and pour the sugar mixture over the apples; toss well to mix. Layer half the apple mixture over the dough in the baking pan. Dot apples with half the butter. Top butter with the other half of the apple mixture and dot with remaining butter. Top with another sheet of pie dough. Crimp edges of the two pastry sheets to seal. Cut some small slits for air to escape during baking.

To prepare topping: Brush the pastry top with the milk. Combine the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle mixture over the milk.


Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.

Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake another 35 to 40 minutes until bubbly and browned.

Note: May be made in a 10-inch deep dish pie pan if you wish the conventional shaped pie.

An old Indiana recipe.

1/2 cup boiling water
1 tsp salt

Grandma's Banana Spice Cake With Sea-Foam Frosting is from other source and this blog just to republish with same information about Grandma's Banana Spice Cake With Sea-Foam Frosting , if you are the owner from this article feel free to cantact me



Back in the early 1980's my grandmother spent a Saturday afternoon teaching me how to make her banana spice cake. I am not sure why they call it sea-foam frosting, but I can tell you...it does taste delicious!


What I really enjoy about this recipe is the right combination of sweet buttermilk, ripe bananas, along with the spices. If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can substitute with regular milk.


Banana Spice Cake Recipe


Ingredients:


2 1/2 cups sifted flour
1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
2/3 cup vegetable shortening
1 1/4 cups mashed ripe bananas
2 eggs
2/3 cup buttermilk


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.


In a large mixing bowl, sift together all of the dry ingredients.

Stir in the shortening, buttermilk and mashed bananas. Mix all ingredients until the flour is wet and everything is well combined.

Lightly spray two 9" round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Pour batter evenly into each pan and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 35 minutes or until the center of the cakes are done.


Sea-Foam Frosting Recipe


Ingredients:


2 egg whites
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, firmly packed
5 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract


In a double boiler, combine the egg whites, brown sugar, water and salt...beating slightly to mix the ingredients. Place over rapidly boiling water; beat with an electric mixer at medium speed, until the frosting stands in peaks (about 6 minutes).

Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and beat again until mixture is thick enough to spread on your cooled cake.
