my kitty and me.
So, I wanted to bake something with all these apples and mango I have. I also have half a cake the bf’s awesome mother got me for my undisclosed age b’day but the bf left the top open over night and it went stale. I decided to make this I
guess.
Note: for people who read the blog and are like wtf kind of recipe is that? I just make it up as I go along. It’s for creative cooks. Feel free to interpret and make your own versions because that’s how I come up with these ideas to begin with.
Apple Mango Maple Betty
5 Apples (mine were really small, if you have big ones use three, doesn’t matter what kind)
one mango
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tbsp hot cocoa powder
1 tbsp dark brown sugar
couple teeny drops of vanilla extract
half a left over coffee crumb cake from entenmanns – just the top
I don’t know how to make the crumbs, I’m sure it’s easy
Candied Almonds (see last post)
Cinnamon like 1/2 tbsp (I would of used it if I had it)
Let’s do this.
Slice up the mango and apples. I didn’t know mangos have a pit. Be careful with that. Line them on the bottom of a greased baking dish, one layer, more if you cut up too many. Make a sauce. Get a little bowl and put the vanilla drops in, add the maple syrup. Add the sugar, make sure no lumps. Add the cocoa. Mix until well blended and pour on top of the apples and mango. Get the cake. Take off the crumbs and sprinkle them on top. Cook at 350 until really caramely and bubbly – 45 min kind of. At like one minute before you take it out sprinkle the almonds on top.
Let cool for like ten min and serve hot with something awesome like ice cream, which I don’t have. This is my first attempt at creative baking.
finished on plate for the bf
Close up...yummy!
