INGREDIENTS

For the Filling:

  • 2 1/2 lbs Gala apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/4" thick*

  • 6 tablespoons honey

  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg

  • pinch of salt

  • 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1/2 cup water

For the Topping:

  • 1/4 cup King Arthur all purpose flour

  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar

  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp baking soda

  • pinch of salt

  • 2 tbsp chilled whipped butter

  • 1/3 cup low-fat buttermilk

  • 1 tbsp canola oil

  • 1 tsp light brown sugar, unpacked

INSTRUCTIONS

  • In a large heavy pot, combine all of the apple filling ingredients and simmer on low heat for about 25 minutes, gently stirring occasionally until the apples are soft.

  • Divide warm apples into 8 (4 inch) ramekins.

  • Preheat the oven to 400F.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk flours, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

  • Cut in chilled butter (must be cold) using a pastry cutter (or 2 knives) until pebble-sized pieces are formed.

  • In a small bowl combine buttermilk and oil; mix well.

  • Add to the dry mixture and mix until just moistened, careful not to over-mix.

  • Spoon the batter over the apples in the ramekins.

  • Place on a sheet pan. Sprinkle with brown sugar and bake 24 to 28 minutes, until apples are bubbling and the topping is golden. Let it stand 8 to 10 minutes before eating.
