Huguenot Torte from The New York Times Magazine





This recipe was in the Sept 13, 2009 issue of the NYT Magazine. It was a reprint from a 1965 issue. It's divine. That's all you need to know. So just bake it!!!

------Ingredients:-----

2 eggs

1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 c sugar
1 cup peeled and chopped tart apples

1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 Tbsp all purpose flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder

1 cup whipped cream barely sweetened and flavored w/ 1 tsp almond extract *we used sour cream, which was fantastic because it offset the extreme sweetness of the torte. You could also use creme fraiche.

-----Directions:
-----


1. Preheat oven to 325
2. Beat eggs and salt with rotary beater until light and fluffy. Gradually add sugar.
3. Fold in apples and pecans. Add vanilla, flour and baking powder.















4. Pour into well greased baking pan about 8 x 12" or 9 x 9" at least 2" deep.
















5. Bake for 45 mins, until sunken and crusty. Serve warm or chilled, with whipped cream.

Serves 8.


Note: it will rise A LOT. So you need to make sure your baking dish is deep:

Do you find the baking powder in your dessert recipes makes them taste bitter? I am of mostly German decent and even though the PA Germans use the levening ingredient a lot I find I prefer using baking soda and buttermilk/lemon juice or vinegar in my recipes that call for Baking Powder, or both baking powder and baking soda.
