Ingredients

  • 1/2 pint of water
  • 1/4 pound grocer's currants which have been washed
  • 2 ounces of butter
  • quarter some apples
  • two lemons

Directions

1

Peel, core, and quarter some apples. Boil the peel and the cores with a few cloves in 1/2 pint of water, and sugar enough to sweeten it. Lay the apples in a pie-dish, mixing with them 1/4 pound grocer's currants which have been washed and dried in a cloth. Add to the liquor a glass of red wine and the grated rinds and juice of two lemons. Put this over the apples; slice in 2 ounces of butter; line the edges and top with light tart paste; bake 1 hour. When done, sift powdered loaf sugar on crust.
