Preparation time: 20 min. Baking time: 25 to 35 min.
Oven temperature: 375ºF. This is an easy-to-prepare variation of an old
family favorite. Use baking apples for best flavor. Place apples in lightly greased custard cups. Dust with sugar and cinnamon. Stir together sugar, flour and baking powder. Mix in egg and melted butter. Spoon batter over apples, dividing evenly. Sprinkle with walnuts and orange rind. Bake at 375ºF. until apples are soft and batter is golden brown, 25 to 35 minutes. Serve apples slightly warm with orange ice cream or a dollop of whipping cream, if desired. Tips: These apples can be baked a day ahead and reheated when serving.
