APPLE-RAISIN PANDOWDY
A pandowdy is a fruit dessert, usually sweetened with brown sugar or molasses, that's closely related to a pie -- without the bottom crust. Its pastry top is broken with a spoon halfway through cooking so the collapsed bits soak up the juices and soften. For ours, we used brown sugar and apples and raisins laced with cardamom and allspice.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss together apples, raisins, brown sugar, flour, lemon juice, cardamom, allspice, and salt in a large bowl. Transfer to a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Dot top with butter; set aside.
- Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface. Roll out to an 11-inch round that is about 1/8 inch thick. Carefully place dough on top of apple mixture. Fold edge under itself, crimping if desired. Chill in freezer until firm, about 15 minutes.
- Brush dough with cream, and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Bake until crust is set and beginning to brown, about 45 minutes. Remove from oven; gently push some of the crust into the filling using a spoon. Bake until crust is golden brown and crisp and juices are bubbling, 25 to 35 minutes more. If crust is browning too quickly, cover loosely with foil. Let cool on a wire rack 1 hour before serving.
APPLE PAN DOWDY
An old fashioned recipe my mother has made since 1954. You add a cooked syrup over the apples, and top with a flour combination topping. It is a different type of apple cobbler you will really enjoy. You can serve plain or top with milk or ice cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish. Layer the sliced apples evenly into the baking dish.
- Mix together brown sugar and 1/4 cup flour in a saucepan, and stir in vinegar and water until the mixture is well blended and the sugar has dissolved. Bring to a simmer over low heat, and stir constantly until the mixture has thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, let cool for about 10 minutes, and stir in the vanilla extract and butter. Pour the mixture over the apple slices in the pan.
- Mix together 1 cup flour and the baking powder in a bowl until there are no more lumps, and cut the shortening into the flour mixture until the mixture forms crumbs the size of peas. Stir in the milk, and spread the batter over the apples and syrup.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender, about 35 minutes.

APPLE-RASPBERRY PANDOWDY
Entry-level bakers, this one's for you. Essentially a batter-topped cobbler, it's assembled in one pan: Toss tart apples with lime juice and cinnamon, then cover them with a drop-biscuit batter and a sprinkle of fresh raspberries. Finish with a fine veneer of sugar drizzled with hot water, so it melts into a delicate shell; then pop it in the oven until the top is crisp and golden brown, and present it with pride-a foolproof, down-home finale for your feast.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. In a 2 1/2-quart baking dish or cake pan, toss apples with lime zest and juice and cinnamon; spread in an even layer. Transfer dish to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet (to catch any juices that bubble over).
- Beat butter with 1 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla on medium speed to combine, about 1 minute (mixture will be grainy). Add both flours and beat until no dry flour remains and mixture is crumbly. With motor running, slowly add milk, beating until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Spoon batter over apples, then spread to edges in an even layer. Scatter raspberries over batter. Sprinkle remaining 1/3 cup sugar evenly over top. Drizzle hot water over sugar (most will melt).
- Bake until top is crisp and golden brown and cake is set, 55 to 65 minutes. Let cool slightly, about 15 minutes. Serve warm, topped with ice cream or a drizzle of heavy cream.
APPLE PANDOWDY
Apple pandowdy is a bit like an apple pie but with fluffy cake on top. When I was growing up, we had an apple tree in the back yard. The apples were too tart to eat raw, but they were delicious in baked desserts. This is the first one I ever made on my own. You can substitute molasses for brown sugar like I normally do, and I use vanilla paste instead of vanilla extract. You can also omit the bourbon, if desired.

APPLE PAN DOWDY
This version of the old fashioned recipe has apples, nuts and raisins together with spices, brown sugar and molasses under a very rich pastry crust. The other recipe on Zaar seems to top the apples with a cake-like topper but this is wonderful too. From the March 1981 Bon Appetit magazine.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples. For this recipe, tart apples like Granny Smith or Braeburn work best. They hold their shape well and provide a nice contrast to the sweet raisins.
- Don't overcook the apples. You want them to be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them.
- Use a good quality cinnamon. Freshly ground cinnamon has the best flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. In addition to cinnamon, you could try adding nutmeg, ginger, or cardamom.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. This is the perfect dessert for a cold night.
