INSTRUCTIONS
Melt butter in 13x9x2" baking pan inoven while pre-heating; remove. Combine 1 cup of sugar, chopped nuts and cinnamon in small bowl. Sprinkle evenly oveer melted butter. Arrange apple slices, overlapping slightly. Sift flour, remaining sugar, baking powder and salt into large bowl. Add shortening, milk, eggs and vanilla. Beat at low speed, until combined, then at high speed for 2 minutes. Pour evenly over apples. Bake at 350 F (160 C) for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until top springs back when lightly pressed with fingertip. Cool in pan on wire rack for 5 minutes. Loosen around edges with a knife. Cover with a large serving tray or cookie sheet. Turn. Lift off pan. This came from an issue of either Family Circle or Woman's Day over 20 years ago. It has never failed and has never failed to please. The original recipe calls for the blanched almonds, but I prefer the taste and texture of walnuts or pecans. I also recommend using Granny Smith apples, and unsalted margarine can be used in place of vegetable shortening. Butter is best for the topping Posted to MC-Recipe Digest V1 #235 Date: Sat, 5 Oct 1996 20:42:16 -0400 From: kmeade@ids2.idsonline.com (The Meades)
