Vino Cotto Apple Streusel
Ingredients
6 large McIntosh apples
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup light brown sugar (dark brown sugar optional)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 tablespoons margarine, chilled, cut into pieces
3 ounces Vino Cotto di Montillo
vanilla or vanilla fudge swirl ice cream
Preparation
1
Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Using PAM No-Stick Cooking Spray, evenly coat a 13 by 9 x 2 inch baking dish.
2
Peel, core and cut apples into 1/4-inch slices.
3
In a large bowl, coat apple slices with lemon juice.
4
Drizzle vino cotto over apples and gently toss to coat.
5
Pour contents of bowl into the baking dish.
6
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix well.
7
Add butter pieces to mixture. Using a large table fork, press butter into the flour mixture to form a granular mixture. Sprinkle the topping over the apples.
8
Bake for 30 minutes, checking periodically to avoid burning. If the topping begins to brown before the apples are tender, loosely cover the baking dish with a piece of tinfoil.
9
When the apples are tender, remove the tinfoil and finish browning the topping.
10
Serve warm or at room temperature with ice cream.
