Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray a 1 ½ quart baking dish or cast iron skillet with cooking spray. We used a 9" pie plate.

Step 2

Arrange the sliced apples in the baking dish.

Step 3

Sprinkle the apples with nutmeg, cinnamon and salt over the apples. Drizzle evenly with molasses.

Step 4

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.

Step 5

While the apples are baking, combine the flour, baking powder and sugar in a medium bowl. Whisk well.

Step 6

Add in the melted butter, milk and whisked egg. Mix just until combined. Do not over mix.

Step 7

After the apples have baked for 20 minutes, spoon the batter over the apples, then bake for another 20-25 minutes or until the toothpick inserted in the topping comes out clean.

Step 8

Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Step 9

You can serve right from the dish, or you can turn it upside down onto a platter and serve with the apples on top.
