Apple Pandowdy #AppleWeek

This post is sponsored in conjunction with AppleWeek . I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the AppleWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

Welcome to Day 3 of Apple Week.......

I am having so much fun this week sharing all these wonderful apple recipes and finding new apple recipes that are being shared by my friends.  Mostly, though, I'm excited to share the opportunity for my readers to win some awesome and amazing gift packages from our generous sponsors.  

You can learn all about our sponsors and enter the rafflecopter giveaway over at my Welcome Post. I really hope one of my readers is the lucky winner of at least one of these fantastic gifts.

My recipe today showcases two of the sponsor gifts that I received for this event.  The first is a wonderful, fragrant Vietnamese ground cinnamon from The Spice House and the second is some lovely, gourmet, pure vanilla extract from Rodelle.  It was my first time using either of these products and, I must say, I was very impressed.

I started out by coring, peeling and cutting apples into eight pieces.  Then I put them into a casserole and sprinkled them with that Vietnamese cinnamon.

Then, I poured on some homemade caramel sauce flavored with the pure vanilla extract.  I had to force myself not to steal a spoonful of it to quell that grumble in my tummy.

Dolloped on some dough and sprinkled with more cinnamon and sugar before putting it into the oven to bake.  

It comes out of the oven all ooey, gooey and bubbly.  The apples are tender and the topping is a gorgeous, golden brown.  Resist the urge to dig right in......you will badly burn your mouth....not that I would have any experience with that......

Let it cool while you have dinner and then serve it up with a dollop of ice cream.  Cold ice cream feels very nice on a burnt tongue.....just sayin'......

According to an article I found in USA Today, this dish is actually Apple Pan Dowdy.  The Dowdy is derived from Middle English Doude which means inelegant.  I personally love the rustic look of this dessert.
